RE: [Hardhats-members] RPC Calls to VistA from .NET Application ( C# )

I would agree that using ODBC is probably a better route.  Web Services in M is possible as well, I think a project was mentioned on here that facilitated that from within M itself.  I also believe CPRS-R uses web services (in Java) and those can be consumed by .NET when using WSE 2.0/3.0.   Another option is the wrapping method everyone keeps mentioning.  Dialog Medical took the Delphi library and wrapped it in an ActiveX Control.  Then anything that can use COM (.NET included) can talk RPC.  It’s easy enough to create an ActiveX Control in Delphi using the Broker SDK.   /david.     David Sommers  |  Dialog Medical   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Walton, Edward NMN(WSH) Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 4:47 PM To: 'hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net' Subject: RE: [Hardhats-members] RPC Calls to VistA from .NET Application ( C# )   I do not know what you are trying to do, but you may what to look at the VistA mappings for Cache. With the mappings it should not be very difficult to read any patient data from a .NET Application. We have used Access to make some reports using the mapping and a ODBC connection.   Ed   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gokul Ram Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 12:09 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Hardhats-members] RPC Calls to VistA from .NET Application (C# )   Hi,   Very much new to this group and VistA software.   Trying to fetch patient data from VistA using the RPC Calls.   I found the list of RPC's by logging on to the Cache Terminal. I'm trying to find information on " How to make RPC calls to VistA from .NET Application to fetch the patient data ? "   Can you pls let me know where I can find more information on that ?   I'm sorry if I've asked a more generic question or you can point me to where I should start in this regard ?   Thanks much in advance.   -GR
