Sheets

Sheets has been updated to use .NET Framework 2.0 visual styles, this means it should look more like a Windows 7 application rather than an old outdated Windows 2000 application.

A major change to how the period slots are chosen has been made, instead of ticking boxes the period slots are loaded from the database and can be chosen from a drop down list.

To reflect both changes Sheets has now had it's version number changed to start at 5.0

Possible errors you will get while running Sheets and the fixes for them can be found below.

Errors:
Fixes:
  • EIS/SHEETS/xxx/DB1
    Database Server value is incorrect. You need to replace what is there with the current value which is eisdata\data2005. Just click in the box and type the value in as can be seen below.
  • EIS/SHEETS/xxx/DB2

    Period Slot drop down has no values. You need to click the drop down box just to the right of the Period Slot label, this should fill the box with values. Now choose a value. If the drop down box does not fill with values to choose from then refer to EIS/SHEETS/xxx/DB1, correct the server address and try again.
