Easy Notes Pro

This is a separate program available from easynotespro.com. It features a customizable toolbar that lets you assemble your procedure notes without any typing. It can prompt you for data during an exam to help you enter consistent and thorough notes. Here's how to install it for use with Pract-Eze Dental version 3.8.4 or later:

Step 1: Purchase and install Easy Notes Pro. Or use their download version which is good for 45 days.

Step 2: Activate the Easy Notes Pro program link in the Program Links section.
Path is typically C:\Program Files\EasyNotesPro\AppBarProcess.exe
Command line arguments are typically similar to this:
"C:\Program Files\EasyNotesPro\DefaultDentalToolbar.etb" standalone true
The first parameter is the name of the toolbar to open, which can be at a different path than shown above. The second parameter, standalone, indicates that the toolbar will be free floating. The third parameter is true if you want the toolbar to be editable, false if not.

Step 3: To use the new link, open up any procedure, and you should see 3 buttons above your notes box that says Easy Notes Pro:
Launch: If ENP is not running, then click this button. Make sure to also click the Show button. You will not have to click launch again as long as you leave ENP running.
Show: Brings the toobar to the foreground and prepares it for use.
Paste: After each ENP note is created, click this button to paste into your procedure note. If you use multiple ENP notes in sequence, then click this button after creating each one.
