PublicationDate: 1/16/97 Summary: Receiving 97-98 Data Author: TIV/WAN - Title IV Wan Customer Service Posted January 16, 1997 TO: All EDE Destination Points FROM: Title IV WAN SUBJECT: Receiving 97-98 Data The Central Processing System started processing 1997-98 data last weekend. In order to successfully draw down 97-98 data, you will need to use either IAM version 1.5 which was sent to all users the last week of December, or EDconnect for Windows version 2.0. If an earlier version of IAM is used to draw down 97-98 data, the files will not automatically decompress. If you have already drawn down 97-98 files with a version of IAM earlier than 1.5, follow these instructions to manually decompress the files: 1) In EDconnect, go to Utility|Decompress. 2) In the "Compressed File" field, type in the path you have specified as your data directory, followed by the compressed filename (C:for example). 3) In the "Decompressed File" field, type in the same path, but in the file name, use the next available extension number (C: for example). 4) Press the Enter key on "OK". The file should now be decompressed, and can be imported into EDExpress, or other software. Please load the latest version of IAM DOS 1.5.0 or EDconnect Windows 2.0.0 at your earliest convenience. If you have questions or need assistance, please call Title IV WAN Customer Service at 1-800-615-1189. |
