repeating fields

[Virginia Everett]

I am trying to add a nickname field to the patient alias repeating field series.  I was able to interate to a point to add a field to the series but I had to hard code the value.  It was not allowing me to use a variable.   Has anyone tried this and successed with words of wisdom to what is needed?  Thanks

Virginia,

Are you saying you have the nickname in a temp variable but cannot use that as a Source in a COPY Action?

Show us what you are trying to do (a screen shot would be good) so we better understand.

Here is the example.  The @aliasCount is not reconized as an index.

Virginia,

You can only use %xnn type counters as repetition counters inside the address pathing.

You can maintain your own iteration counter – let’s say %g99.

This is done by preceding the counter (%g99) with a $ ($%g99) in your MATH Action for example.

Thne inside your address path you would use %g99 without the $ – in this example.

If you are still having issues, you can email me and I will help you get where you want to be.
