How do I print a File of Files entry ?

The File of Files is stored in the ^DIC global. It records standard data that is available about a FileMan File that is common to all entries in the File.

DESCRIPTION:   The PATIENT file contains all the patients followed by the
medical center/ Outpatient clinic.  At a minimum each patient entry must have
a NAME, DATE OF BIRTH and SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER.  In order to add a new
patient to the PATIENT file the user must also indicate whether or not the
patient is requesting to receive care as a VETERAN of the U.S. Armed Forces
and specify the TYPE of patient being added to the system.  For the most part
the information contained in this file is demographic in nature, i.e.,
address, employment, service history, etc., however data concerning
admissions, appointments,etc., is also stored in this file.  The ADMISSION
sub-field is scheduled to be moved into the new PATIENT MOVEMENT file by the
end of calendar year 1989.  Care should be used when removing a patient from
the PATIENT file since virtually all other DHCP modules do utilize data from
this file.  Of the many fields in the file you will note that many are
preceeded by an asterisk.  Those fields are scheduled to be removed from the
file due to either lack of use or replacement by another field/file in the
next release.
