I’ve emailed a copy of the report to you.
Regarding having the practitioner custom field available, we would need it in the statement report – against each invoice line.
Thanks
ClaireThis does occur when entering new records. They appear in lower case if you don’t have the caps lock on but hold the shift key down on while entering. If you either put caps lock on or let the database automatically capitilise the postcode it appears in upper case (ie don’t hold the shift key down). It doesn’t appear as lower case when you are in the patient record, only when you export the list or when you are in the patient grid.

ClaireHello,
I’ve updated the payment receipt ( I renamed it). I looked for the new merge fields, but I cannot find them ? Did I something wrong ?

Went through all you instructions and have sorted this issue into a workable solution ..many thanks…
but in terms of ergonomic use as I suggested being able to print a patinet card from the patient editor print button with merging custon fields should be added to the wish list
or placing an initial consultation field somewhere in the patient editor it’s a handy little date to have printed on the patient card
Many Thanks

Thank you for the information.
Once we sign up and gt an account, how does it work within CO2005?
Can it be set up so that when you enter a new appoinemtn there is an option to set up an automatic SMS say 3 hours prior to the appointment?
Or does this need to be done automatically?
If you did make Clinic Office 2005 compatible with the Avery/Dymo Label writer another function that would be fantastic would be the ability to print appointment times onto the label and then we could stick that on the back of a business card. We book multiple appointments in advance and it would be great to be able to print them out rather than write them by hand. I understand we can print an appointments list on a A4 sheet but it would be handy to have a wallet sized version.
While I’m thinking about it, having the option to display/print the date as Day, Date, Time would be handy too (eg Mon 7th Nov 11.00am).
Cheers
ClaireAs suggested I had a look in the letters folder and sure enough Custom fields are where you said they would be…
I copied the letter and pasted my table from another doc into it… and then inserted a merg field form custom pat menu
on merging it gave a failed response…I have attached the docs to see if you can reproduce…

Hooray! I think I’ve found the answer to my query about font size for the clinical reports!
The answer is in th Home Page, under File and then Settings – when you can alter the font size for each clinic worked!
Proof of the puddinbg wil be in the eating when I do my reports tomorrow.

AberdeenThank you again for your help on font size. However, I spoke too soon when I said your reply was exactly what I needed to know.
The font whose default size I need to alter in the first instance is that applying to the clinical reports – ie that under the Subjective, Objective, Assessment and Plan features.
I know I can select the font for me at the outset of each section, but I would like to have my preferred size (12 for me) come up automatically. I cannot find a template to cover these reports. Is there one I can alter that I have not found?
Kind regards

Yes you can.
In ClinicOffice, go to “Reports & Templates”, right-click the template in question then click “Edit Template”.
Firstly, you need to change the “Normal” font style. To do this, click Format | Styles and Formatting. Select the “Normal” style then click the “Change” button. You can now choose the default font, font size, colour etc. etc.
Secondly, you may also need to select the lines on the template where you normally start typing your letter (i.e. after “Dear
“) and change the font size there too. When you have finished, SAVE the template and then close the Word Processor. Any time you create a new letter/report based on this template in future the font sizes will have been updated.

Hi Support,
Have U had a chance to review the problem I had with the form designer (see my last post) ?
Consider investing in SMARTSTAMP form Royal Mail…A neat little program that allows you to print your own stamps with your company logo on…
For more info click link below…You can export your database to excel which smartstamp will then take and perform a merge and print all your envelopes with or just pick a single patient details and print..
very simple to use and virtually free advertising

Hi
I have attached an example of wot happens when I print a copy of a form I have designed usig true/false fields.
In the undefined state, the box actually has a grey/shadowed tick in the box.
And when I go and print the form even tho it is undefined it still prints a little tick in the box. Wot sometimes happens is I send a printed blank form out to a patient to bring it with them. I would prefer to be able to print without the actual grey ticks within the box. I have attached a copy of a print out of the form for ur reference.
thanks
I had this problem with a samsung ML????
Basically it’s your printer!!!
Switch over to a brother or a HP laser both of which I’ve tested and haven’t been able to reproduce this type of fault
I tried downloading the latest drivers for the samsung but it didn’t make a difference
I’m afraid it’s new printer time!!!

Hi I have been playing around with this fantastic little program for a few days now trying to sort out the best protocol for off site backup…
My suggestion is that if your using this prog.. that you set up two backups
Start with a Full Backup which you schedule weekly on Sunday PM..(max compression to save space… mine ran to 12MB)
Then set up a Differential Backup which is scheduled for Mon to Sat at the close of business daily (This looks at the changes on a day by day basis and backs them up)
If you need to restore….
select your Fullback 1st and restore…
then select your last Differential Backup and restore that
and thats it!!!I’ve tested the restore facility twice and it works perfectly!!!
I use CuteFTP Pro to look at my web space to see what’s happening and If like me you only have 100MB you’ll probably need to go in once a month and tidy up a little
Any probs e-mail me
Colm :D/
I think I sorted it out…
Step 1
Make a copy of the GP Letter in the Letters Folder (right click menu)Step 2
Drag and Drop into Contacts FolderStep 3
Edit Template.. I put in a table and then loaded the necessary fields from the “Insert Merge Fields Button” into the relevant cells..Step 4
Click on the “EDIT SOURCE” Button and untick the “Is Document Template”Step 5
Save it, then go back into the contacts folder and rename it to whatever you want….. I call mine Card (as in patient card)
Click on the patient editor, call up a patient, Click on the print icon, scroll down to contacts, click on Card (or whatever you called it) and see if it’s merged the patient details…It’s working for me…
Colm 😆
Many thanks for your reply..
On the patient editor print button I need a facility to print the current patient being viewed…. (the current Print This Patient has too much detail but if there was an edit facility on this it would be great)
As suggested I have copied a file in the contacts folder and tweaked it slightly..
I’ve thru trial and error, comparing code in other reports and cutting and pasting managed to get this report viewing on the print button drop down menu under contacts…
However as yet I can,t get it to print the patients details…comes up blank…
Can you create a doc that I can tweak….I need…
Patient Surname, Title, First Name (14pt)
Address
Telephone home, work, mobile
DOB
Patient Code
GP Name
GP Address

Thanks for your research on this Colm.
The remote FTP backup is definitely something that we’re considering. Once the Stock Control & Associate Fees modules are complete (by the end of this year), we’ll be looking to implement something like this.
Well I’ve given it some thought and this is the best solution I can come up with but I’d be pleased to hear from any other suggestions on this matter
Step 1
I’m using Windows SBS 2005 which has a back up utility built in ( find it by searching for ntbackup.exe and create a shortcut on your desktop) use this to automate your backup…once it’s setup you don’t have to worry about itFor Other Windows Versions
Step 2
Download AUTO BACKUP from http://www.han-soft.comStep 3
Configure it to do your backups then…
Configure it to back up (your back up!) off site using it’s FTP facility onto your web space (very easy to use)If you haven’t got web space then check out this broadband provider.. http://www.fasthosts.co.uk (100mb free with your broadband)
It took me less than 10 minutes to set this all up
Any problems e-mail me…

Many Thanks for prompt reply… looked at that website as suggested some great stuff there…. the award winner is $400 for the server version which is a bit expensive so I have a look at the others or come up with some other solution…
It got me to thinking though…. Could you programme Clinic Office 2005 to backup through FTP onto a server that you manage and charge us £10 a month for this peace of mind or onto web space of our choice… (I have about 50mb spare on my web site)
Many Thanks Colm
