Have the party checked to receive 997, they send me 997 for inbound in the same outbound I pick up 944/945 I create a 997 for a 997... Whaaaaat???

Me again, I have a process it's been running for a while with 18 other partner. We started (at the request of the partner) without 997 (when I started this I knew nothing of BT/EDI, I still know pretty much the same).
A new partner demanded 997's, so I switched the checkbox on the party and it generates the 997 when a 944/945 is received but the problem is that they send everything from one /outbound/ folder in which are also sitting 997's they are sending me for 856/940's
that I sent previously to an /inbound/ folder.
Please point me to some link that talks about this????
Thanks

that part is fine, I pick up a 944 and generate a 997 ... perfect .... only that 997's and 856's and 940's I send to an /inbound/ folder - I pickup 944's and 945's from an /outbound/ folder (at the van) ...
The partner, when they pickup their 856's and 940's from the /inbound/ folder send a 997 in the outbound folder,
so, when I am picking up 944's and 945's there are also 997's from the inbound process ... this is the punchline ... those 997's generate more 997's to be sent back to the partner and here I give up, I am going to have to strip 997's from the transmission
before they get to my 944/945 process.
