6Cross-References
This section contains a description of the MUMPS-type cross-references that exist on fields in VA FileMan files. There are no bulletin or trigger cross-references in these files. All other cross-references are regular types used for lookup or sorting, or both.
The cross-references are grouped by file. The field affected is identified along with the cross-reference’s name (or subscript location if there is no name) and a brief description. Many of these cross-references are described in more detail in the data dictionaries.
