Thanks Burke and Suranga, I'm sorry, but I'm not adept enough to figure out the code yet.
Is the HL7 Socket listener required to use HL7? I can't seem to find any documentation on it apart from the module download page. As far as the maiden name, can you just enter the Mother's maiden name and have that go to the family_name2 for the patient, or do you have to enter the mother as a person as well?
