Introduction (statement of the problem to solve)

Currently, there is no easy existing way to transport a drug file in VISTA into a new VISTA installation. Previous methods relied on programmers hand crafting a solution for their systems. In addition, the existing drug file in WorldVistA 1.0 was not good enough to be used in an instance and had to be deleted and replaced with a new hand entered one.

This project aims to provide the following:

  • An easy way to transport a drug file
  • Example drug files as KIDS distributions to use for new installations

Solution

A MUMPS routine was written to work with KIDS to distribute a drug file for installation on new systems.
