Hi Bert,
I've read this a few times now...and it seems overly complicated to me...is there an example I can see somewhere on the web?
I already use a spread sheet for my diabetics...gives me an at-a-glance look at all my pts with DM. I used the format suggested at
http://www.aafp.org/fpm/20060400/47usin.html . Of course, that has all diabetics, so it's not appropriate to import into charts.
Once you have imported your spreadsheet into someone's chart, how to you add to it? For example, if I'm tracking someones INR, I need to make adjustments. Do you simple import an updated spreadsheet each time?
If you are using a spread sheet for so much data (face sheet and the like), why use AC?
Sorry if I'm just not getting it...it's Monday
