Thanks Dr Zaccaria. That is exactly what I was looking for.

vjc

Thanks Tom. I already tried that but it did not help.

vjc

Somehow, I do not see any info other than the pt name in the appointment box. (I am talking about the box in the appointment view, not the bubble that pops up after you hover the mouse over appointment).
Can someone plase tell me how to get more info like proc attached to show up in the box. Thanks.

vjc

I agree. Should have clarified in my previous post itself. MAC filtering is not a substitute for encryption. It is an additional way of protecting your network. More are the safety measures employed, lesser are the chances it could be hacked.

vjc

As an additional hackproofing, you can go into your router's settings page (generally accesible by typing web address as 192.168.1.1 but may vary depending on the make of your router, refer to its user manual). On that page look for MAC Filter option and enable the MAC filtering. Now find the MAC ad...

This page http://www.kanmandet.dk/?p=593 describes how to overcome that bug, but then goes on to say that the tool does not let you send multiple messages in a row. The webpage says that you can not send multiple messages in a row. The reason for this is that after every messsage you send thru SMS ...

Congratulations to Jordan and his team for incorporating a much awaited feature. It has been on the wish list of many users for such a long time. However, it's use is currently limited to US only as CallFire does not cater to any other country. To make text messaging feature truly international, I t...

Hi Jordan Finally I managed to get rid of the problem. It seems that somehow the Arial font was missing (I still dont know how) and the webpages were also looking a different in the browser. I reinstalled all the fonts of Arial family and everything was as smooth as ever. OD now runs like a charm. T...

Hi Jordan The my.ini installation issue has been solved. I installed the new trial version and it installed everything fine. However the original problem is still persisting. I also feel that it has to do something with windows and not with OD at all as the other PC's are running it fine. Will try t...

vjc

Thanks for your quick reply Jordan. Here are the answers to your questions 1. It is not a compiled version but a downloaded version from OD. 2. The problem occured all of a sudden. We were not updating or anything. 3. I had a older trial version saved with me and I was trying with that. 4. Did a com...

Recently, on one of the computers where OD was installed, OD now fails to start. The error that I have been getting is Description: Stopped working Problem signature: Problem Event Name: CLR20r3 Problem Signature 01: opendental.exe Problem Signature 02: 7.9.18.0 Problem Signature 03: 4e20c838 Proble...

By the way, I found another software for sending text messages using cellphone as a modem. It is called "SMS Caster E-Marketer". I used the trial version and found it better than Microsoft SMS sender in following ways. 1. Compatible with Win 7 2. Compatible with both GSM and CDMA phones. 3. Most imp...

vjc

It's feature request 1275, which is near the top. I'm sorry, I can't give any estimates on when we will be able to add it. I just hope that whenever it is implemented it is something independent of any web based gateway and uses connection to our cell phones to do that (using Kennel or Microsoft SM...

I am running it on Win 7 32 bit without any compatibility mode. But when I tried to install it on a friend's system using 64 bit version, I had to run it in XP compatibilty mode, but it worked fine after that.

vjc

This is great! I notice that the program does not formally support Windows 7 but you seem to be running it without issue. I will give it a spin but you might want to post a Step by Step for all forum members. Of course, integration into OD should be the long term goal. Yes I am running it on Win 7 ...

I went to that Microsoft page. I don't understand how you connect your phone to your computer. What exactly is the process by which you send an SMS this way? Do you have to do anything on the phone, or is it all done from the computer? What is the advantage of this compared with sending an SMS thro...

vjc

Hmm. You're saying that you are aware of desktop software that communicate with your phone over a cable? If that is the case, it does seem like the cheapest solution I've heard so far. Web-based SMS gateways charge around 20 to 30 cents each. I've heard of people sending tens of thousands of text m...

Recently I visited one of my colleagues' office. The software that he is using has an automated SMS function with no manual intervention required for many SMS services. For example, a patient makes a call to schedule an appointment. The front office picks up the phone, takes necassary information an...

I found a webpage that gives a list of free softwares that can communicate with cell phones connected to PC via a cable. The list is categorized for non-developers and developers. I dont know if any of those can be made to work with OD but here is the link. http://www.developershome.com/sms/freeLibF...

Hi Jordan, As you said, I am aware of a software that can communicate with a cell phone over a cable or even a bluetooth (if phone and pc both have it). I have a Nokia phone and the software for this is Nokia Ovi Suite which is available for free download at the Nokia website. I have used it at time...

vjc

Just a thought. Is it possible to do it this way. 1. Connect your phone to PC via data cable or usb. 2. Have a dedicated SMS button (like the E-mail button) which would open another window (like it does for email) 3. Have templates (again like those of emails) and compose your message. 4. Have a bri...

Reinstalling C# solved the problem. thanks Jordan for your prompt replies.

I tried both the Opendental.sln and OpenDental7_2.sln with the same results.

Can someone tell me how can I add a footnote in the progress chart printout. (Same footnote for every print)

vjc

It was ContrChart.cs that could do what I wanted to do finally.
Thanks Dr Jordan.

Thanks Dr Stark
That is exactly what I was looking for

Can someone tell me where is the progress notes form as i want to make some changes to its layout.

vjc

Is there a way to print progress notes on a letterhead? I mean the printed page should have the name of the office, address, phone etc first and then the standard progress notes after that. Sometimes people need to send progress notes to another dentist and they prefer it printed on a letterhead som...

I was developing this program for a person who does not have very good vision and would like to have a larger font size for easy reading. I tried increasing the dpi, this increased the size of a few items and the person found it workable, but then the text in the "Entry Status" part of the "Enter Tr...

I compiled ver 6.4.22 using Visual C#2008. Everything is working fine but I am unable to print anything including progress notes and treatment plans. Whenever I try to print, all I see is a print preview pane (FormRpPrintPreview). Statements also can not be directly printed but once it starts showin...

Thanks. That is exactly what I meant.

I wanted to do some modifications to the startup logo of Open dental.
Can someone tell me where can I do it?

vjc

Can anyone suggest any reading or links for learning accounting as related to OD?
Accountants are not so happy discussing their trade secrets (Rightfully so I think)
