Hi Barbara, If this is a single line query, all you need to do is to assign the value of nil to the temporary response for the query. You can do this in an IFE attribute on the very first query in order to "clear" the allergy query immediately when the screen is opened. If the query is on the first page, the displayed response will remain until the cursor reaches the response field. However, if the query is required, the user will not be able to file without moving through and addressing this query. You can go through some extra effort to "erase" the displayed response as well, but it is really not required for it to work.
Place this on the first query and replace the QUERY with the mnemonic of your allergy query: IFE=""^/[ANS%0,"QUERY"]|0,1 If your allergy query is a multiple line query, let me know as this will require a Do Loop to nil each line of the query. Good luck, Kenny Whiteside >>> Barbara Kirtland Pena <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 06/08/07 8:58 AM >>> Good morning. We are needing help with an attribute that will either clear a default query response or force a user to clear a default query response and then either enter new data or F5 demo recall data for that query. We are a 5.5 Magic system. Our current Admission History Intervention is set to Y for Default Queries. On of the query responses that defaults in from the last Admission Hx is the Allergy query. The arises when this query (a shared customer defined query) has been edited in some other module since the patient's last Admission Hx was documented. The last Admission Hx response to the Allergy query will default but may not be the most recent response. If the user does not update the query, incorrect data will be sent back to demo recall when the Admission Hx is filed. Without giving up the ability to default the last Admission Hx responses, we want to force the user to either F5 this field (which will pull in the most recent response to the shared query) or verify the patient's current allergy information and update the query response. If someone has an attribute that will help us, we would appreciate your sharing.
