Episode59 Linking a Template with a Title
This is roughly how you link a template with a title so that the template comes up with the title when a title is selected. See Episode 25 Demystifying Templating, Document Classes and Titles for Dummies. http://vistapedia.net/index.php?title=Episode25 for how to create a template and a title to begin with. Example for this title is 'ICH-016 Adult Psycho-Social' which is a end user/CAC defined title. Use VistA-Config and tune in to TIU Template file and then on the title after it has been created to get a better understanding of how to do this in Fileman.
Note that in the LINK: Prompt if it loops and will not allow linkage that it is probably already linked to another template. Only one template is allowed.
If you see this type of interaction then it is already linked to something else:
