Not yet.

Excellent. Is your Mom's clinic in the US or in Brazil ? Just
wondering.

You get this because the database doesn't have that view in
it. It does not have the view in it because you did not use
the bootstrapping script to generate the database. And you did
not use the bootstrapping script, because the docs are
outdated and in dire need of update. Please see
client/doc/TODO/user-manual.txt for Michael's notes on how to
install under Mandrake. This explains how to use the
bootstrapping script. Please do consider updating the SGML docs
from the TODO/* stuff. Ask for help here if you don't know how
to do that. Thanks.

Any help you give is appreciated.
