Sectionref

Purpose

A sectionref appears only as the child of a Form or Path element in which it is included; it is not submitted as a stand-alone component.

Syntax

<SECTIONREF
    REFNAME="name"
    [ORDER="n"]/>

Attributes

REFNAME="name"

RefName of the section that the Sectionref is including in the definition of a form or path. Required.

ORDER="n"

Sequence in which each sectionref appears in the form definition. If you do not specify an order, the MedML Installer utility orders the items referred to by the sectionrefs in the order in which you enter them. Optional.

Note: When including a Sectionref definition in a Path element, only the REFNAME attribute is valid.

Example

This example illustrates the use of Sectionrefs in the definition of the Demographics form, which contains two sections: Demographics (DEM) and Smoking History (SH).

<FORM REFNAME="DEM" TITLE="Demographics" MNEMONIC="DEM" FORMTYPE="CRF">
    <SECTIONREF REFNAME="DEM"/>
    <SECTIONREF REFNAME="SH"/>
</FORM>

The following example shows the LEADECG section as the location where the mapped COMMONDATE control occurs.

<PATH>
  <CHAPTERREF REFNAME="PF_ALL_VISITS"/>
  <PAGEREF REFNAME="ECG"/>
  <SECTIONREF REFNAME="LEADECG"/>
  <ITEMSETREF REFNAME="1"/>
  <ITEMREF REFNAME="DATEASSESS"/>
  <CONTROLREF REFNAME="COMMONDATE"/>
</PATH>
