the suburb is misspelled and no warning is given;
1) There are patients with only a single name. Some of us make that their
surname with no 1st name, others make that the 1st name with no surname,
some use that for 1st & surname.
2) Sometimes an elderly patient brings a grandchild. They are not sure of
correct DOB. In these cases some of us leave it blank rather than type in a
wrong DOB
3) I still have patients who misspell the suburb. If they know the correct
postcode, the software will fix the suburb. In cases where they don't know
postcode, I enter the misspelt suburb.
For above 3 we need software that is flexable & allow us to do the odd
things in examples 1,2,3.

Are you running MD2 or MD3? If the latter, how did you migrate these
sorts of patients to MD3 from MD2?
