Using
NetTerm the first time to access your
Patient Database
The first time you try to
access your
Patient Database with
NetTerm, you need to
associate it with
NetTerm. To do this:
-
Click on the
Patient Database link found on this screen or the previous screen.
-
If Windows complains that an association must be added first, you will need to
manually add the "sh" extension to the list of file associations under
Tools/Folder Options/File Types.
- Tell Windows to Open this file from the current location.
- Click on the "Other..." button at the bottom of the "Open With" box
- Find "netterm.exe" under "C:\Program Files\NetTerm OR if using SecureNetTerm,
under
C:\Program Files\InterSoft International, Inc\SecureNetTerm - Choose the "netterm.exe" program.
- Make sure the "Always use this program to open this file" option is
checked.
- Click OK to run the program.
- Log in with the login user id and password assigned to you by AMS.
- You may change the screen size by clicking the "ABC" icon after the
program starts.
The next time you click on the
Patient Database link, Windows will again ask you to Open or Save the
file. You will choose to open it, and be sure to REMOVE the check next to "Always ask
before opening this type of file"
option on that window. From this point forward, whenever you click on the
Patient Database link, Windows should start NetTerm for you and take
you to a login screen.
Printing to your local printer with
NetTerm
The first time you try to print with
NetTerm, you need to
choose a local printer and a specific font. To do this:
-
Click on the
Patient Database link found on this screen or the previous screen.
-
Log in with your assigned user name and password.
-
At the top of the NetTerm window, click on File, then Setup
Printer.
-
Click the down arrow to the right of the name box, and choose the
printer you want to use from your list of available printers.
-
After you have chosen a printer, click the Select Font button . In
order for the columns to line up correctly, you MUST choose a Courrier
font such as Courrier New. Also choose 11 point font size.
This fits well on most 8 1/2 by 11 pages.
-
Click OK to accept the Font and OK to accept the printer you have chosen.
-
Now when you choose to print something, always specify to print to the
<LOCAL> printer and it will print to the printer you chose.
