Unfortunately MD3/MedTech have no similar functionality for clinical notes. I did get the impression from this thread that some people wanted to whack a web-interface on top of a SQLised PracSoft schema. Whatever the technical rights and wrongs of this, HCN could make a pretty convincing case of copyright violation. Converting to a 'cleanroom' schema (i.e. one designed by people who have never seen inside a HCN database) is pretty safe, as you can argue that the inevitable similarities are co-incidence. Ian
