Did you mean ^DPT the ^VA(200 file is the newperson file? Ed

Hey all, I thought I was getting the hang of fileman, but I have found a quirk that I don't understand. I add a patient with UPDATE^DIE. The patient's name is specified to be "DOE,JOHN P." This happens with no problem. When I look in ^VA(200, I can see the added patient ("DOE,JOHN P" -- with no ".") The problem occurs when I search for the patient. I am using FIND^DIC to lookup the patient. The problem occurs if I include the "." in the search value. i.e. "DOE,JOHN P." --> search fails "DOE,JOHN P" --> search succeeds. Is this standard? Is there a flag for FIND^DIC that can prevent this pickiness? Thanks Kevin __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo! Mail with you!
