Move the report up to the main segment (bar.account) or call the macro from a header key on @account and say N to detail if you need to write it on the transactions segment for some reason.
To strip all but the numerics from a phone number, get the MIS.zcus.is.util from our report library and upload it use the macro numeric as follows: %MIS.zcus.is.util.M.numeric(@phone.number) PS: We recently noticed in a 5.5 magic system that if you do all your output in a macro with just the CR/LF coming from the picture, your lines may be truncated when output to VIEW or SPOOL. To fix this add a RL footnote to specify the record size. Joe Cocuzzo Vice President NPR Services Iatric Systems, Inc.

I am trying to set this up using the example provided by Joe Cocuzzo at Muse where you set up a macro for the output of the file. This is for a download file that requires a lot of information and this makes it easier to edit the fields if needed. The problem is I am getting a blank line for each procedure the patient had and I am not sure how to correct that. The way the original file was set up was on a header key for the txn.procedure. Using Joe's example I set up the footnote as AL D %BAR.PAT.zcus.ftp.per.se.tech.file.M.get.info(@txn.urn). I think the D is for Detail and I have tried changing it to something else but still get the same thing. I would like to start setting up the download files this way because it looks like it would be faster to make edits this way. I also have one other question. I need to strip out the hyphens or parentheses out of a phone number. The problem is when they enter the phone number they enter them both ways and then some do not enter either hyphens or parentheses. I am not sure about striping those out?
