GETTING STARTED
NOTICE:
GRADESCAN is copyrighted. If after trying it out and evaluating
it, you intend to use it on a regular basis, a nominal fee should
be remitted to the developer. The terms of this arrangement are
spelled out in the file labelled "NOTICE.DOC". To view this file,
type "TYPE NOTICE.DOC". To make a printed copy, type "TYPE
NOTICE.DOC > PRN".
REGISTRATION:
Forms for registering the program can be printed by typing "TYPE
REGISTER.DOC > PRN".
MANUAL:
To make a printed copy of the GRADESCAN USERS MANUAL, type "TYPE
MANUAL.DOC > PRN".
STARTING THE PROGRAM:
From a FLOPPY DISK, type "GRDSCN".
From a HARD DISK, type "A:INSTALL". Upon completion of the
installation process, type "GRDSCN".
ELIMINATING THE PRACTICE CLASSES:
Select Option 8, FILE MAINTENANCE, from the Main Menu.
Select Option 3, ERASE ALL CLASSES, from the Submenu.
This will remove the practice classes when you are ready to enter
your own class data.
SAVING DATA TO DISK:
NEWLY ENTERED DATA WILL BE LOST IF YOU EXIT THE PROGRAM OR
CALL IN ANOTHER CLASS WITHOUT FIRST SAVING THE DATA TO DISK.
Therefore, after you have entered new data for a class or
changed data already in the files, select Option No. 7 from
the Main Menu to save all data from the current class to disk.
BACKING UP YOU DATA FILES:
Using GRADESCAN'S internal backup procedure requires that
you have two floppy disk drives. If you have only one
drive, you should periodically use the DOS "DISKCOPY"
function to back up your work.
If you are running GRADESCAN from a floppy disk and have at
least two floppy drives, you must copy the file COMMAND.COM
from your DOS disk to the GRADESCAN disk to be able to use
the program's internal backup procedure. Selecting the "FILE
MAINTENANCE" option from the Main Menu brings up the backup
procedure.
