I go about this the opposite way. I create a computed field to pull the
information on my picture, then create a selection prompt that says the
'answer' is nil. Works great!
Computed field xx.npi
DAT=FREE
JFY=L
LEN=10
[EMAIL PROTECTED]"NPI"]
Page two Select prompt:
xx.npi EQ
"" (double quotes - nil)

Not clear whether you want to write a report that picks the doctors that do not
have a particular insurance pin, or do not have any of several selected
insurance pins.
The general solution is to write the report in the main segment, and have a
computed select field that tests for the existance of the data in the child
segment, and returns a true if there is no data in the child segment.
In the simpler case where you want to see if MC-UPIN is filled in for a doctor:
Set up computed select field on page 2
xx.ck EQ
1
Set up that field as follows
xx.ck
DAT=INT
LEN=1
[EMAIL PROTECTED]"MC-UPIN"] "";1}
If you wanted to make the report flexible, so that the user could enter the pin
mnemonic to check:
Have an IG select on Page 2 to collect the desired pin to check:
MIS.INS.PIN.mnemonic IG
PIN TO CHECK
xx.ck EQ
1
DAT=INT
LEN=1

Subject: NPR - How to find Data in a Dictionary that Does NOT Exist
Hi,
I am having a problem with returning data from a dictionary when that incidence
does not exist.
Can you help?
More specifically, I have been asked to write a report that gives me those
physicians that do not have a certain insurance pin and number.
I am able to return physicians that do have a certain pin but not those that do
not. Mistakenly, I wrote first the report with a select operator of NE but this
simply leads to the report not to print the PIN and number for those physicians
that do have it.
Example:
Our INS contains three choices: MC-UPIN, MCD-UPIN, and NPI.
In the MIS Provider dictionary a provider may be assigned any of the above
(multiple group response).
How do I retrieve those providers that "do" not have one or many of these, e.g.
which provider does not have the NPI pin.
Thanks,
Marc
