I use this in EDM CDS to default the birthdate: DFT=%Z.bdate.out(@p.ADM.PAT.birthdate,"",10) Bill Mullins RN Williamson Medical Center 2021 Carothers Road Franklin,Tn 37067 615-435-5630 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ken MacPherson Sent: Friday, June 16, 2006 11:41 AM To: Janice Graver; [email protected] Subject: RE: [MEDITECH-L] Attribute help All messages should be posted in plain text. HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Hi Janice First of all, I am not an expert in the use of attributes, however, if you look at the code of your attribute you will see that you are storing the value @p.ADM.PAT.birthdate to the LOCAL VARIABLE (No slash) BD. In the rest of the attribute you are accessing the GLOBAL VARIABLE /BD. Try changing the BD to /BD or the /BD to BD in the code of the attribute. I would suggest the latter as it is always safer to use LOCAL rather than GLOBAL variables; especially in such a limited scope.

HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Sorry but new and looking for help. I asked the list awhile ago for a way to put a field on a CDS that would display a field from ADM.PAT. It is the birthdate. The user wants it to display on another screen (ours). I have a query named LTC.DOB and on the CDS I have this query and then this attribute. It doesn't place the date of birth in the query field. We are CS 5.5. I must be close because I see the DOB on the first line of the CDS in YMD format. [EMAIL PROTECTED], IFE=/BD^/[ANS%0,"LTC.DOB"]|0,P(R,S,/BD)^#,""} Is there someplace to go to decrypt the syntax of attributes like this? TIA Jan Have a Great Day!
