Location of Sheets files

Post by Tom Zaccaria » Wed Apr 11, 2012 6:56 am

Can anyone direct me to the location of the defined sheets folder?
We designed a new patient exam sheet and I would like to transport it to our other office.

Thanks

I havn't tested this, but it looks like the way to move a sheet is to select it and then export which will create an XML file. Then locate your \OpenDental\OpenDentImages\SheetImages folder and grab the image attached to the sheet if any. On the server at the other office, copy the sheet image into the corresponding folder locally and then go to open dental and import XML. As I said I havn't tried this, but it's the first thing I would try.

That is exactly how you do it. I just tested it and it works like a charm.
Funny how the solution was right in front of me all this time.
Nice work by you!
Thanks

That is exactly how to do it.
The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.
