The HTML version of the "VA FileMan Advanced User Manual" contains documentation updates since the original release of VA FileMan Version 21.0 documentation in December of 1994 (including new functionality introduced by patches). This page lists all significant updates, in reverse chronological order. For specific updates based on the release of VA FileMan Version 22.0 and any subsequent patches, see the "New Features and Functionality in Version 22.0" topic in this manual.
Date | Description of Update | Patch/Version Number |
06/19/98 | Changed title from "User 2" to "Advanced User" manual. | Version 21.0 |
06/02/98 | Additional revisions made to the format and layout of the manual to
improve usability:
|
Version 21.0 |
04/16/98 | Revised the layout of the manual as follows:
|
Version 21.0 |
02/02/98 | Added two new date functions for Year 2000 (Y2K) project: NUMDATE4 and NUMYEAR4 |
DI*21*44, Version 21.0 |
04/03/97 | Changed title page, introduction, and preface to reflect VistA in place of DHCP. | Version 21.0 |
12/02/96 | A group of minor, long-standing updates was made to a number of documents. | Version 21.0 |
10/02/96 | Created a new "tabs" style top frame for the manual set. Eliminated the bottom frame also - less frames (three vs. four before) should mean quicker loading. | Version 21.0 |
09/25/96 | All files now get their "last updated" date directly
from the file's time/date stamp, via the javascript document.lastModified
property. Also, the "framesynching" javascript function will no longer cause an
error if a page is loaded on its own, outside of the context of the frameset
for this manual.
All cross-manual links (between API and U1 manual, for example) now use "../" syntax to change directories (instead of a full "http:..." path), so the cross-manual links should work, even if the manuals are downloaded to and installed on a PC. |
Version 21.0 |
(inception) | What was the "VA FileMan User Manual" is
now, in the HTML version, split into two manuals:

Version 21.0 |
