When creating custom letters in the Patient Letters Wizard I like to use a table to keep things aligned (eg. 1 row with 2 columns for the cornea so if one eye has a lot of descriptive text the other eye row size adapts accordingly). What I haven't been able to figure out is how to get 3 columns instead of 2. I really need that third column for headers so everything stays aligned! Any suggestions? This would solve a lot of wasted time trying to line things up before printing. I must be missing something really obvious...surely the table feature isn't locked to 2 columns.
Thanks!

Unfortunately this is an area of the software that, in my opinion, needs a lot of work for it to really be as useful as it could be. In short I do not think there is a way to add a third column. I would suggest writing your headers in the first column and bolding the font so that it stands out. That is what I try to do if headers are necessary..

Thanks for the tip and graphic, I think it'll be better than what I'm doing at the moment!

Frisco is correct! There is a max of 2 columns. You do have the option of building templates in Microsoft Word which gives you much more flexibility as far as tables and formatting go. You do need Word on any workstation that you want to use the letters on though, which is the only con. If you are already almost done with the letter you were creating, you probably don't want to start from scratch but may want to check out the Word option for any future letters. See related a video created by Dr. Dettloff on how to create Word documents: www.youtube.com/watchv=f1RcHnOvURglinkCheat sheet for checkboxes, merge fields and patient data: Read First - Opening the MS Word Template ....docx (284.51 KB) MS Word Template File.docx (24.4 KB) You can also set up a training by emailing me erica@crystalpm.com Thanks!
