While MD3 (& MD2) have dbf files automatic updating can't occur. So
although you have asked HCN for 3 years, they just can't do automatic
updates - unless they rewrite mD3 & remove dbf files. BP on the other hand
has the ability do do that.
Cedric,
An interesting statement.
Does BP have automatic updating now?
The MD3 DBF files are for things like the drug database and the the
patient education, etc.
As you probably know MD3 has 3 databases. Redmap for the scanned
documents/imported fax files and images, MSSQL for the clinical
database, and /Program Files/HCN/Medical Director/ with its dbf, cdx and
fpt files for the drug database, the patient education, etc. These are
the things that are local to each PC and used to only be changed every
three to four months, or even less
I can drop in a set of dbf, cdx, fpt database files for the patient
education, to provide Patient Ed in languages other than English, so why
not auto-update from a remote server? The server would receive the
updates and piggy-back on the network update to distribute these and
updated program files, etc., surely?
With b/band this stuff could be cached as it is with Windows if you
select the 'download and notify me' option in automatic updates.
