Hospital Forms

This is our hospital forms that we print out for each patient. Obviously not suited to all clinics but just a few ideas on there.

Also some advice from any computer wiz would be great...

Before the last upgrade I was able to have procedure as an input field and have them copied throughout the document so once the document was previewed we were able to change the "procedure" once and it would automatically change them through the document.

However, since the upgrade, we then have a pop up box that asks us to enter the procedure 7 times which as you can imagine is quite annoying.

So we have changed the document to have procedure entered twice (once as "procedure" and once as "procedure client page")... the rest of the document procedure sections are now blank until someone can figure out how to fix it.

 

So any advice on the procedure part but also on any part of the document would be great.

Thanks

Greta

Input fields

Hi Greta,

 

I can't find a way to reference the input field so that you would just have one input field and the rest refer to that. In lieu of that, you could use Variables, although this would essentially be going back to what you did in the past.

ie.

1. Press Ctl-F2

2. Choose Variables tab

3. Create a "procedure" variable (I see you have an old weight variable in "hospital cage form canine" already).

4. Insert a "set variable" at the first instance of where procedure occurs (make sure its set to text).

5. At all subsequent appearances of the procedure text insert a "show variable" placeholder.

 

When you come to edit the document you would need to open it and set the first variable (double click on the "Set variable" placeholder you created above). All the "Show variables" below will automatically change to this value.

 

Does anyone else know how to reference a user_field value so that the user is only prompted once and all subseuqnt instances are references to this?
