| DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS |
Patch VALM*1.0*6
APIs have not been changed at all.) Although these APIs will continue
to be supported, applications which use them might consider switching
to the standard Kernel APIs, too.
The following are the ListManager APIs which are no longer called,
along with their Kernel equivalents:
ListManager Kernel
----------- ------
$$FDATE^VALM1(X) $$FMTE^XLFDT(X,"2D")
$$FTIME^VALM1(X) $$FMTE^XLFDT(X)
$$FDTTM^VALM1(X) $$FMTE^XLFDT(X,2)
$$NOW^VALM1() $$FMTE^XLFDT($$NOW^XLFDT)
$$UPPER^VALM1(X) $$UP^XLFSTR(X)
$$LOWER^VALM1(X) no equivalent - too esoteric
NOTE: Users should not be on the system during installation of this patch.
If they are using any application which uses List Manager (e.g. CPRS,
Outpatient Pharmacy, Appointment Management), they may experience a Clobber
Error. This patch requires patch VALM*1.0*4 and VALM*1.0*5.
