Not a problem, that's what the list is for. >I'm unable to get the code tutorial process to work.

Actually, you should select a file that probably doesn't sound likely - CodeTutorialTool.200. The button Import Code to CodeGenerator calls a script in CodeGenerator, which imports the codes from the CodeTutorial. So when you are presented with that dialog box you are actually in CodeGenerator (even though the screen behind the dialog is CodeTutorialTool.200), answering the question, "Where do I get the codes to import?" The dark grey screen is the CodeGenerator file. As in version 1, when you get stuck somewhere with no navigation buttons, Cmd-1 (Ctrl-1 on Windows) takes you to the Main Menu screen. The gap in the directions has been made apparent to me by several questions this morning, both on and off the list. The TechRocks staff monitors this list, so I'm sure they will take note and modify either the process or the instructions. Seems to me the import should proceed without presenting a dialog box. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
