Shirley - Here is my promethazine rule. We also had a problem with age until
my analyst realized that he need a custome keyword for age. Both are below,
but I have no idea what the keyword does.

> Our pharmacist is trying to create a rule that puts out a warning it the
patient is less than 2 years old. When he uses "02" then 3-9 year olds get
the warning. When he uses just "2" it doesn't work at all. We were
wondering if the ages on the really young are stored in a different format.
