Mary,

In VistA, there is a huge menu system.  These are called "OPTIONS". 
When one logs into VistA in a standard fashion (i.e. do ^ZU or do
^XUS), then the user is taken directly to their default menu option. 
Alternatively, you log in via the programmers entrancd (do ^XUP), then
you are allowed to choose whatever menu option starting point you
want.

There are over 9,000 menu options, arrange in various heirarchies. 
When I was exploring this, I wrote a routine that scanned ALL the
options, and put them into an HTML page in their heirarchy.  You can
look at this on my site:
http://kdtop.vistaoffice-ehr.com  On the left hand side, see a menu
entry for OPTIONS FOR XUP (this is a list of the menu options and
their descriptions, but not arrange in a heirarchy.), and also VISTA
MENUS.  This will give you an idea of what is available.

You may find the menu EVE to be a good high-level menu starting point.
 But there are major modules that are not available even from this
one.

Now, with that background, the menu option that you want is:
OR OE/RR MENU CLINICIAN

I can do some of the things that CPRS does, but not all.  My
understanding is that the text-based version came first.  They they
were parallel for awhile.  Now all new development goes into the
windows GUI CPRS.

Hope that helps.
Kevin
