Associated patches: (v)XU*8*120    <<= must be installed BEFORE `XU*8*166'

Subject: HL7 date/time fix for midnight

Category: 
  - Routine

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

  
 In working with the RAI/MDS folks a problem was found in how the FMTHL7
 and HL7TFM API's of XLFDT worked.  This has been fixed.
 FM stores midnight as 3000803.24 and HL7 standard requires it to be sent
 as 200008040000-0800  i.e. Midnight of the night extending from Aug 3 to
 Aug 4, 2000. 
  
 Also a new routine XLFCRC to compute CRC's, both 16 and 32 bit.
 See DBIA 3156 for details.

 Installation:
  
 >>>Users may remain on the system.
 >>>Taskman may remain running.
  
   1.  DSM sites - Some of these routines are usually mapped,
       so you will need to disable mapping for the affected routines. 
      
   2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option on the PackMan menu. This
       option will load the KIDS package onto your system.
      
   3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
       system. You now need to use KIDS to install the Transport global.
       On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
       options:
       
          Verify Checksums in Transport Global
          Print Transport Global
          Compare Transport Global to Current System
          Backup a Transport Global
      
   4.  Users can remain on the system.
       This patch can be queued and installed at any time.
  
      
   5.  On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
       option:
         Install Package(s)  'XU*8.0*166'
                              ==========
                              
         No Options or Protocols need to be placed out-of-order.
         Want to DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and Protocols? NO
                                                                         ==
      
   6.  DSM Sites, after patch has installed, rebuild your map set.
