• If the target class appears in the existing class mini-window, highlight it and move to the next step (this should be the present mode of operation), or

Transport Cullingford's template-file (with excel-icon) from laptop to the lectern computer. To keep the posting current. If possible, this should be done on the same day after the class. In any event the transfer should be done at least once a week.) The pathnames on both computer computers are the same, which is: MyDocuments/cpsfiles/cullingford/

· Check on the date on the file-label. It should match the date of M, W, or F. Correct the date if needed. Correction should be done in two places: 1) the date of the file label, and 2) the date on the 3rd line after this file is open.

· The transfer of file from the laptop to the lectern computer may be done using a floppy.
