Copying Results

To copy results to the Clipboard for use in a patient letter or memo:

1.   If you haven't already, click the tab containing the type of result you want to copy. You can select from any of the following tabs:

• Big Board (Clinical Summary view)

• Labs

• Clinical Summary

• Last Known Values

• Specimen Views

Note: You can copy information from the Microbiology, Reports, and Report Mgmt tabs by pressing the CTRL+C keys.

2.   Click the Copy button.

3.   To paste the results you copied into a letter or memo, place the cursor where you want the results to appear; then click Edit > Paste. To ensure that columns align properly, use a font type of Courier, Courier New, or Letter Gothic.

Note:

• Pasted results include a heading with patient identification information and a footer with a confidentiality statement (however, this does not apply if CTRL+C is used to copy).

• Results copied from the Labs tab are formatted best when pasted into Microsoft Excel.
