This method sets the value of the current field.
blnSetFieldValue = objHL7Field.SetValue("New Value")Note:
When called for a field, this method works only if the field does not have components. If the field has components, then SetValue will return true, but the components will not change. If the field has components, use the SetComponentValue method to set values for each component in the field.
