Q. Can I copy the programme on to a floppy to transfer it to another machine.

A. No. Refer to Section 18 of your User Manual for complete instructions on how to move your Version 7 System to another machine.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. How do I replenish the Survey credits in my System?

A. Call the help-line or E-mail and order more credits, your new licence code will be E-mailed back to you.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. How do I get updates to the System?

A. The latest updates to both the system executable files (The "Analyst files") and the narrative report files ("System.dat") are placed on a web site at:
http://an-idea.com/success/index.php

These files are dated so that you can identify if you need to download them. Once downloaded, simply extract the files to the C:\Survey7 directory and accept "Yes" to overwrite the existing files. This will only work when Personality Survey is NOT in use.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. How do I get unusual symbols and use foreign words when entering details in the Analyst and Job Scan opening screens?

A. Fire up the Windows programme "Character Map", choose the same font as Survey uses, which is Times New Roman unless you have changed it. Choose the symbol or foreign letter you need, for instance ê and press "Copy". Now go back to the survey screen, right click on the box you want to insert the letter into and choose "Paste". The letter you chose will then appear. Thus it is possible to insert foreign names such as "de Brêve". The name will then appear correctly spelled in the report.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Can I use my own word processor to add Analyst's comments to reports?

A. Yes. Write your comments using your favourite word processor, spell check it and then highlight all the text and copy it to the clip board.

In the Analyst's Comments screen, press the space bar and then right click at the cursor. From the drop down list choose "Paste" and your text will be pasted in exactly as you typed it in your word processor. Delete the first space you typed in.



------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Can I cut and paste text in the main body of the reports?

A. No.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Is there a limit to the number of times I can print each report?

A. No you may print reports as many times you wish.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. Can I add Analyst's Comments to a report after I have already printed it?

A. Yes, you can add comments to or delete comments from a report and still print the result.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q. I have lost the Analyst icon from my desk top, what should I do?

A. Right click on the desk top and from the drop down list press "New" then "Shortcut". Press "Browse" and then click on the directory "C:\Survey7", find the file "Analyst7.exe" and double click on it. Now press "Next", then "Finish". You will find a new icon on the desk top that you can use to fire up Survey.
