Hi Shirley
Putting parantheses around a list of fields like this creates a packed
data
piece. I t usually looks something like this.
{FLD1,FLD2,FLD3,FLD4}^PFLD
to access FLD1 out of PFLD you would say PFLD|0
to access FLD2 out of PFLD you would say PFLD|1
to access FLD3 out of PFLD you would say PFLD|2
to access FLD4 out of PFLD you would say PFLD|3
The number after the bar (PFLD|0 reads PFLD "bar" 0) refers to the
ordinal
position of the data in the packed field. The number is determined by
counting from the left from 0.
I don't understand why there was no ^ in your example and assume that it
was a typo.
Hope this Helps
Ken

Subject: [MEDITECH-L] Magic NPR syntax question
All messages should be posted in plain text. HTML will be converted to

======================================
In a macro that compiles the med information for a printed MAR there is
the following:
@SETUP.LOCALS,
@SETUP.DOSE,
@COMPILE.MEDS,
@COMPILE.TIMES,
@CHECK.FOR.DOT.SIG,
{bottle.type,mar.format,mar.section},
@COMMENTS,
@TAPER,
@MLS;
I understand most of the code in this but I do not understand the syntax
of parenthesis around a list of fields. Could someone enlighten me?
Thanks.
