080502 - Subject Index Corrections Did Not Install
080503 -
080504 - Gary reported in an email today that the subject Index which was
080505 - corrected on 021105, and transmitted to him earlier today, per above,
080506 - ref SDS 0 MX9H, did not install on his computer.  He still has the old
080507 - subjects.
080508 -
080509 - The examples he submitted appear to be different from the corrected
080510 - indexes.
080511 -
080512 - Sent Gary an email linked to this record suggesting we may able to fix
080513 - this by moving the subjects he has now to another directory, so we
080514 - know there is nothing there.
080515 -

080927 - Possibly the prior subjects were marked in some way that prevented
080928 - being overwritten.
080929 -
080930 -  ..
080931 - While working on this issue, Gary checked my subjects and noticed that
080932 - he does not have subjects updated from last night.  Whatever is
080933 - occurring, the result is that we are out of sync.  It looks like the
080934 - spec for installing my subjects is incorrect, similar to experience
080935 - failing to update Gary's subjects, per above. ref SDS 0 GV5K
080936 -
080937 - We want records for Welch (00101) on Gary's computer to be in sync
080938 - with the same account on my computer as of the date of the update, and
080939 - more importantly, we want a procedure that accomplishes this without a
080940 - lot of rework.
080941 -
080942 -  ..
080943 - To test the records transfer op, I did another update for the SDS
080944 - program and my SDS records, using tgj.bat that gets only stuff from
080945 - this morning to just now.  Gary should should see this record in his
080946 - set of these records on his computer, and it should be very similar to
080947 - this record he sees on the Internet.
080948 -
080949 -  ..
080950 - I also zipped all of my subject index...

080960 - available, and asking to him to verify that the record he has on his

151032 - Linking Gary's Records to Rod's records...
151033 -
151034 -    1.  Linking occurs from within SDS records, so open an SDS record
151035 -        for Gary.
151036 -
151037 -        The short explanation for linking is press F5 to mark the
151038 -        location of a link; open a record or move to another location
151039 -        in the current record to link and presss Enter at the location
151040 -        you want linked.  That's it.  If there is an anchor, that
151041 -        anchor will be used, and if not an anchor will be generated by
151042 -        the system.
151043 -
151044 -        Good practice is to link the top of paragraphs, rather than a
151045 -        line in the middle of a paragraph.
151046 -
151047 -             [...below, in a call this afternoon, Gary indicated he can
151048 -             link my records now. ref SDS 0 SF6J
151049 -
151050 -         ..
151051 -        Here are some detailed instructions on linking.
151052 -
151053 -         ..
151054 -    2.  Set up something to link, like...
151055 -
151056 -           On yymmdd Rod's record discusses limitations of PDF for
151057 -           enabling effective management. x
151058 -
151059 -        Leave the cursor at the end of the sentence, beyond the period
151060 -        (dot), to mark the location for a link.
151061 -
151062 -         ..
151063 -    3.  F5 marks the cursor location as the target for linking.
151064 -
151065 -        If you use the Diary Sumary to open a record for linking, that
151066 -        process marks the current cursor location for a link.  I you
151067 -        use a subject recport to find a record, that process does not
151068 -        mark the current location for a link, so mark it with F5, or
151069 -        you can come back and mark the location with F5 after opening a
151070 -        target record for linking.
151071 -
151072 -         ..
151073 -    4.  Find a record to link.
151074 -
151075 -        In this particular case, the record on 021118 discusses PDF
151076 -        stuff.
151077 -
151078 -         ..
151079 -        To get a diary summary for another user, in this case Rod,
151080 -        do the following....
151081 -
151082 -
151083 -           a.  Open the menu with Shift F10, or right click the
151084 -               mouse.
151085 -
151086 -                ..
151087 -           b.  Use the tab key three (3) times to place the cursor on
151088 -               the "D" in Diary on the menu bar.
151089 -
151090 -                ..
151091 -           c.  Since target for linking in this case is only a few days
151092 -               ago a spec like this will work....

151114 -                  2.  ^ is the carot symbol on the "6" key between keys
151115 -                      5 and 7 across the top of the keyboard, and

151117 -                       ..
151118 -                  3.  "00101" is the ID for the User of the target
151119 -                      records to open and link back to the current
151120 -                      record.
151121 -
151122 -                ..
151123 -               This opens a list of Rod's records for the past 10
151124 -               days.

151128 -               link.
151129 -
151130 -               If you cannot find a line to link on "PDF" quickly by
151131 -               scrolling through the record with F9, summarize the
151132 -               headings the record by opening the menu...
151133 -
151134 -               1.  Press Shift F10 or right click the mouse.

151138 -
151139 -
151140 -               3.  Select "Summary" about the 4th item down the list.
151141 -
151142 -                    ..
151143 -               4.  Find PDF in the Summary and double click on that
151144 -                   line to close the Summary and move the cursor to the
151145 -                   line with PDF.
151146 -
151147 -                   If it is hard to find PDF from the Summary, right
151148 -                   click to open another menu and select the Sort
151149 -                   option to look for PDF alphabetically in the Summary
151150 -                   of the record.

151152 -                    ..
151153 -               5.  Once the cursor is on the line with PDF find a line
151154 -                   with an anchor.  Usually there is an anchor above
151155 -                   every heading, so since PDF was listed in the
151156 -                   Summary, that means there is an anchor above the PDF
151157 -                   heading line.

151159 -                    ..

151164 -                   This will close the current record for Rod and
151165 -                   create a link to that record in Gary's record at the
151166 -                   end of the sentence where F5 marked the target for a
