CPRS Versions

This will list links for the various CPRS versions.

 version 1.0.18.2  ---> in the OR_30_125.ZIP    (dated about 12/01)*Nancy has it nanthracite at verizon dot net
 version 1.0.19.7  ---> in the OR_30_132.ZIP    (dated about 5/02)*Nancy has it
 version 1.0.20.21 ---> in the OR_30_148.ZIP    (dated about 11/02)*Nancy has it
 version 1.0.22.16 ---> in the OR_30_206.ZIP    (dated about 1/04)*Nancy has it
 version 1.0.23.15 ---> in the OR_30_187.ZIP    (dated about 2/04)*Nancy and Sourceforge WorldVistA have this one
 version 1.0.24.26 ---> in the OR_30_190.ZIP    (dated Aug 2, 2004
 version 1.0.24.27 ---> in the OR_30_224.ZIP    (dated Sep 3, 2004)
 version 1.0.25.28 ---> in the OR_30_195.zip    (dated Feb 9, 2005)
 version 1.0.25.40 ---> in the OR_30_231.zip    (dated May 6, 2005)
 version 1.0.25.42 ---> in the OR_30_235.zip    (dated July 9,2005) Replace 1.0.25.40 with this for patient safety

To use a particular version of CPRS, the server-side software code must match. The files are found at ftp.va.gov/vista/Software/Packages/Order Entry-Results Reporting - OR/ and the source code is in the "Programs" subdirectory of this directory

Thus:

ftp://ftp.va.gov/vista/Software/Packages/Order Entry-Results Reporting - OR/

The Delphi source code for each of these (e.g. OR_30_235_SRC.ZIP) will be found in the subdirectory ...Packages/Order Entry-Results Reporting - OR/Programs/

Note: MS Explorer and Konqueror function just fine. But Mozilla & Firefox do not like the ftp://ftp.va.gov/ site; and give this error:

The FTP server 215 MSDOS A N (FTPServer V4R2 by BisonWare International)
is currently unsupported.

The wget(1) utility is capable of fetching the files from this server.

'TEXT-BASED' CPRS

There is a text-based way of accessing notes etc from a console. Here is an email that describes this more.

In VistA, there is a huge menu system.  These are called "OPTIONS".
When one logs into VistA in a standard fashion (i.e. do ^ZU or do
^XUS), then the user is taken directly to their default menu option.
Alternatively, you log in via the programmers entrance (do ^XUP), then
you are allowed to choose whatever menu option starting point you
want.

There are over 9,000 menu options, arrange in various heirarchies.
When I was exploring this, I wrote a routine that scanned ALL the
options, and put them into an HTML page in their heirarchy.  You can
look at this on my site:
http://kdtop.vistaoffice-ehr.com  On the left hand side, see a menu
entry for OPTIONS FOR XUP (this is a list of the menu options and
their descriptions, but not arrange in a heirarchy.), and also VISTA
MENUS.  This will give you an idea of what is available. 

You may find the menu EVE to be a good high-level menu starting point.
But there are major modules that are not available even from this
one.

Now, with that background, the menu option that you want is:
OR OE/RR MENU CLINICIAN

I can do some of the things that CPRS does, but not all.  My
understanding is that the text-based version came first.  They they
were parallel for awhile.  Now all new development goes into the
windows GUI CPRS.

Hope that helps.
