Maintain Template Paths Window

 

This window appears when you select Maintain Template Paths from the Scenario Maintenance menu

Purpose

This window displays template paths that have already been defined and enables you to add, amend and delete template paths.

Further information

For an introduction to template folders and paths, see Template Folders and Template Paths.

Move through list

You can move through the list using the cursor and <Page Up> and <Page Down> keys in the standard way.

Add

To add a new template path, move the cursor to the line below the last entry in the list. Alternatively you can press <F5> to insert an entry into the list, or <F4> to go into 'Add' mode. The prompts are described in detail below.

Amend

To amend an existing template path, move the cursor to the required entry and press <Return>. The prompts are described in detail below.

Delete

To delete a template path, position the cursor on it and press <F7>. You are asked for confirmation before it is deleted.

The prompts are:

 

Folder

The id of the template folder. Press <F1> for a pop-up enquiry.

Operator

(Only if the specified folder is personalised.) Enter the operator's id (up to three characters).

 

You can leave this blank to create a default data path to be used by all operators whose templates reside in a standard path; for example when several operators have their templates in the standard Microsoft Office templates folder.

Note

This item is case sensitive. 'AMF', 'Amf', and 'amf' are treated as completely different ids.

Description

Up to 30 characters of description.

Path

Up to 140 characters defining the server, volume and directory (folder) on which the template resides.

Note

If you are running Windows 95 and you use long folder names (i.e. in excess of eight characters), you need to use the alternative short names recognised by MS-DOS. You can find out what these are through the MS-DOS 'DIR' command, or by right-clicking on the folder in Windows Explorer and selecting 'Properties'.
