| .01 | order number(+) | 0;1 | FREE TEXT | B | This is a 4 digit numeric value that determines where (and in what order) each data element will be displayed by ^DIR for selection in the 'ACRP Ad Hoc Report'. The first to digits determine the order of the major category of this data element. The second two digits determine the order of the subcategory of this data element (within the major category). | |
| 1 | major category (internal) | 0;2 | FREE TEXT | This is the internal value or acronym that represents the major category of this data element. The 4 character acronym created by concatinating the major category acromym with the subcategory acronym is used as a unique identifier for this data element. | ||
| 2 | major category (external) | 0;3 | FREE TEXT | This is the external representation of the major category (conceptual group) of this data element. | ||
| 3 | minor category (internal) | 0;4 | FREE TEXT | This is the internal value or acronym that represents the subcategory of this data element. | ||
| 4 | minor category (external) | 0;5 | FREE TEXT | This is the external representation of the subcategory (actual data value) of this data element. | ||
| 5 | type | 0;6 | SET OF CODES | D:DATE P:POINTER F:FIELD N:NUMBER T:TEXT C:COMPUTED PP:POINTER/POINTER S:SET OF CODES | This field defines the type of data this data element consists of and determines how it will be manipulated generically. | |
| 6 | type where | 7;E1,245 | FREE TEXT | This indicates where or how this data type is found or code to set up DIR(0). Specifically: Data type: Value: ------------------ ------------------------------- FIELD "file#,field#" POINTER global root of file pointed to POINTER/POINTER "globalroot;field#" SET OF CODES execute code to set DIR(0) | ||
| 7 | type screen | 8;E1,245 | FREE TEXT | This field contains logic for DIC("S") or parameters for DIC(0), specifically: Data type: Value: -------------------- ------------------------------------- DATE value for DIR(0) (required) NUMBER value for DIR(0) (required) POINTER screen logic for DIC("S") (optional) TEXT value for DIR(0) (required) | ||
