In attempting to figure this out….when I type in: ORU.*2.2…i get hits……when I type in ORU.*PID….no hits…….diff might be the the carriage return between segments throws off the regexp search?  😕

Bob,

I believe you are correct…not sure if that was intended …..but will take the explanation……only problem is….the following pattern HANGS the SMAT tool……

Not into debugging this for Lawson..i entered a ticket…no response yet.

ORU(.*[^.])*OBX

trying to make regexp option in smat searching work for HL7 and i cant get it working past the first segment….how do i account for the r….Roberts example above hangs the search in 5.8.

if i have a message – A01 and at the bottom in the IN1 i want to include any IN1 that has a BROWN in the segment…so show me all A01’s with the word BROWN in the message……I cant get it to work…..

Ive tried:

A01.*(r)*BROWN  and all sorts of variations…..no hits!  🙁

Help

….the old expressions (pre 5.8) do not work as well….I presume more questions on this as time goes on and people arent getting hits like they used to.

Thanks guys!
