Why don't you try doing some scripting to leverage some of the API of applixware and automate some of your repetitive processes. There is a package called SHELF which is a scripting language that is supposed to work with applixware. It is open source http://shelf.sourceforge.net/ At the American Academy of Family Practice meeting in September this year, a Family Doc demonstrated a pretty cool home grown program that was done in Word Perfect Macro language. It pretty much automated the process of history taking and physical exam and some prescription functions using menus and templates . His name is Pat Mcallester [EMAIL PROTECTED] He was working with the Windows version of Word Perfect. I think the Linux version of Word Perfect also has a macro programming language built into it - maybe his program could be ported to Linux. Another option might be to use Star Office's Star Basic to do some scripting of the API of Star Office. Might be appropos now that Star Office is open source.
