Spot the missing conditionally required field.

[gm-mrktc]

So we are updating our certification with the OpenFIX testing service, and we have come across a test that is stumping us.

The problematic one is a test that is supposed to determine whether you (or your FIX engine) can determine if "conditionally required fields" are appropriately set in an incoming message.  For example, if a message has set TimeInForce=GTD then it must either specify ExpireTime or ExpireDate.  The problem is that I cant figure out what the missing conditionally required field is in their test message.   Here is the message (view in a monospace font...)

Field Name      Field   Value            Required?
================================================
BeginString     8    FIX.4.2             true
BodyLength      9    178                 true
MsgSeqNum       34   15                  true
MsgType         35   8 (ExecutionReport) true
SenderCompID    49   OPENFIX             true

TargetCompID    56   XXX                 true
AvgPx           6    0                   true
ClOrdID         11   11904076726982      false

OrdType         40   2 (LIMIT)           false

ExecType        150  0 (NEW)             true
LeavesQty       151  1500                true
CheckSum        10   083                 false

We looked through the FIXopaedia ( http://b2bits.com/fixopaedia/fixdic42/index.html ) at all of the "C" fields, but couldn't figure it out.

Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.
