071001 - He has the winA20.386 file in his root directory, so that is not caus-
071002 - ing a problem on his computer, as seems to have been on mine, per ref
071003 - SDS 9 line 40.
071004 -
071005 - The install.bat for the recent update, ref SDS 6 line 47, did not work
071006 - correctly, so we had to go through it again manually.  Install put the
071007 - updated files in

071012 -    computer.
071013 -
071014 -    Evidently I prepared the install.bat routine incorrectly.
071015 -
071016 -    We used copy and xcopy to transfer from c: sd 51 to his regular
071017 -    program directories.

0907 -
090701 - Using SDS at Broadwater Plant
090702 -
090703 - Mike said Bryon is still using SDS, but in a rudimentary form to
090704 - simply keep track of his list of things to do, and to write the daily
090705 - log of plant activity.  Bryon is not using the subject index to
090706 - segment reporting.

090710 -
090711 - The plant computer is linked to Mike's DNRC office computer via 2400
090712 - baud modem.  Mike is using pcAnywere to enter his Diary from the plant
090713 - computer directly to the office computer.  Mike said it is very slow
090714 - and difficult to use SDS at 2400 baud, because the screen cannot keep
090715 - up with data entry.  We discussed the advantages of using Closeup,
090716 - which is on Wayne's computer configured with a high speed modem.
090717 - Mike will investigate the possibility of upgrading.
090718 -
090719 -    I suggested he do a report on Wayne's computer for my SDS records
090720 -    under following Subject:
090721 -
090722 -          Company
090723 -            Property Management
090724 -              Software
090725 -                 Closeup
090726 -
090727 -       This explains benefits and procedures for using Closeup.

090730 - Antivirus Software

090732 - Mike asked for my recommendation on what software to purchase, as set
090733 - out at ref SDS 6 line 132.  I explained we used Norton Antivirus and
090734 - it costs about $100.

1005 - Summary/Objective
1006 -
100601 - Mike asked about tracking vendors by particular catagories of
100602 - busniess.
100603 -
100604 - I explained how to use the "Function" field "0004" to enter
100605 - organization catagories in all caps, and to use the Keyword report
100606 - feature listed in the menu, to get lists of organizations according to
100607 - their functional catagories.
100608 -
100609 -      Main thing to remember in doing the keyword search is to specify
100610 -      the directory: sd 09 02 (for organizations), to use all CAPS for
100611 -      the function description and to append /c parameter to make it
100612 -      case sensitive.
100613 -
100614 - We did an exercise to test his understanding, and he seems to have it
100615 - figured out now.

Citations

1406 - Summary/Objective
1407 -
140701 - He feels the citation feature will save him a lot of time in using SDS
140702 - to link up entries.  He finds the links useful, but has not used them
140703 - frequently enough because at the time he is entering things, it often
140704 - has seemed too time consuming to make them.  Now he expects to use
140705 - this practice a lot more.
140706 -
140707 - We did a few exercises to try it and he seems to understand it.
