What is the recommended message limit to switch to a Linux box?  We are currently using windows 2003 R2, but are beginning the upgrade process to 5.8.5 (from 5.7).  We were originally thinking about going to Windows Server 2008.

what is the Fill Char and Prefix?

Again, sorry for the dumb questions — I have never used this tool before.

[Josh Fishel]

OK.  If i have two fields in my flat file, how do i determine which field is field and field1 in the FRL configurator?

[Josh Fishel]

nevermind, that was dumb.  i figured it out.

[Josh Fishel]

so since I have never messed with the FRL option before…

When choosing the File Formats, it says FRL File.  What needs to be placed in this field?

I’m using T-SQL to pull an alert and the visit ID from our patient database.  I would then like to place it into a “make-shift” HL7 message that has only the visit ID and the alert in it.  The Visit ID would be placed into PID-18 and the alert would be in a Z segment.

So, SQL would dump the data to a flat file like “1234567890, special needs”, where 1234567890 is the Visit ID and special needs is the alert.

The HL7 I would send would be blank, except for the MSH segment and those two fields.  Is this possible?

I would like to use Tcl because I have to do this for several ADT messages of different types, so the XLATE would be out (from what i can tell).  

So i guess what i’m really asking is, what would be the syntax to do something like this?

[Josh Fishel]

what i needed to do was to add the 6 additional OBX segments  starting at OBX|994 to OBX|996.  So i just used David’s code from above and set i to 994 i<=999.  Then modified the inside of the loop to accommodate what i need done….

I can post my code if that will help….

[Josh Fishel]

I am new to cloverleaf, and tcl.  i have written a few tcl procs but not that many. The ones i have written were simple and just did a quick replace.  I just could not figure out how to add these 6 additional OBX records.

Thank you very much for your help.

[Josh Fishel]

would you be able to give me a quick example?
