Associated patches: (v)HL*1.6*38       install with patch       `HL*1.6*42'

Subject: M10 and M11 for alphanumeric ID

Category: 
  - Routine

Description: 
============

  This patch solves the following problems:
    NOIS PHI-0798-20072 and PHI-0698-22536: Patient ID with alphanumeric
                                            data type.
   
  The two extrinsic functions, $$M10^HLFNC(X,HLECDE) and
  $$M11^HLFNC(X,HLECDE) have been improved for the input ID with
  alphanumeric data type.  The additional outputs will be as follows:
   
   1. Return X concatenated with encoding characters, if X is alphanumeric.
   2. Return the input X only, if encoding character is not defined.
   
  Nothing has been changed for the numeric data type input with encoding
  character, its result will contain the X with its corresponding check
  digit and algorithms.
   
  For example,
   
        >W $$M10^HLFNC("12345","|")
         12345|5|M10
   
        >W $$M10^HLFNC("9999","^")
         9999^4^M10
   
        >W $$M11^HLFNC("128952","^")
         128952^7^M11
   
        >W $$M11^HLFNC("1234567","|")
         1234567|4|M11
   
        >W $$M11^HLFNC("1234-F","|")
         1234-F||
   
        >W $$M10^HLFNC("***********","^")
