Editing Macros

From time to time, you may need to edit your macros to accommodate new procedures and treatments.

To edit an existing macro:

  1. Click the "Setup" button to open the Macro Setup Tool.
  2. Click "Change Macro Set" and select the macro set you wish to edit.

    To rename or delete a menu, select a menu from the "Select a Menu" drop-down list.

To edit a menu button, click the menu button you wish to edit. You can select a different menu to display or enter a new name for the menu. When finished, click "Save" to save the button or "Cancel" to cancel.

To edit a text button, click the text button you wish to edit. Type the text you wish to appear in your macro. To format the text, select the "Formatted Text Macro" check box. You can also insert fields, charges, and diagnoses by clicking these options in the left navigation pane. You can click the advanced macro hyperlink in order to view the Insert an Advanced Macro Field dialog box, where you can edit the question or answer choices. The patient-specific macro fields such as "his/her", etc. will not bring up this dialog box.

To delete a macro set:

  1. Click "Change Macro Set" and select the macro set you wish to delete.
  2. Click "Delete Macro Set". The "Delete Macro Set" dialog box appears to confirm your deletion.

To permanently delete this macro set, click the "Yes" button.

Please use caution when deleting macro sets. Deleted sets cannot be retrieved.
