The pattern match operator ? can be used to determine if a value is a
number:

 

You could attach the CON attribute to your field like this:

 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 

Or you could attach a conditional print attribute

 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 

Or you could be more direct:

 

xx.print.only.if.number

DAT=INT

LEN=10

[EMAIL PROTECTED] @field}

 

You actually don't need the IF

 

DAT=INT

LEN=10

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 

Because the pattern match operator used with 0N (zero N) returns a nil
unless @field is a number

Subject: [MEDITECH-L] Question for NPR gurus

 

I have a field that I only want to print if the field is numeric.  Is
there a way to write and IF statement for this or accomplish it in
another way?

 

Thanks!
