1)= S %="^DIC(31,""ADVB"",I,DA)" D S^XTLKWIC
2)= S %="^DIC(31,""ADVB"",I,DA)" D K^XTLKWIC
This is the MTLU cross reference lookup for the AMIE application.
CROSS-REFERENCE: 31^AC^MUMPS
1)= S ^DIC(31,"AC",$E(X,1,80),DA)=""
2)= K ^DIC(31,"AC",$E(X,1,80),DA)
This cross reference was created so that a lookup could be performed on it using IX or MIX. It was
created so that interactive FM could not use it. As a result users will not get confused at a
selection prompt.
