Will -- You should plan to attend the VistA Community Meeting in Pittsburgh (http://www.worldvista.org/Event_Calendar). There will be an opportunity to interact with many in the VistA community. Bring a laptop / PC and you can leave with VistA installed on it.
Meanwhile, you have found the right group to work with. For a demo on short notice, the Hui OpenVista 4 is probably your best bet (http://openvista.pacifichui.org/IntroVDL.aspx?ref=0). Welcome to the world of VistA. It is an interesting place to be. Regards -- Bhaskar Will Yonker wrote: [KSB] <...snip...> > > My name is Will Yonker and I live in Ohio.
