Hi Ebony -- I think Dee has been confused as well. Let me see if
I can explain easily (sorry -- this may be too late for you & if it
is, let me know & I'll enter your stuff into FORT) --
<p>1. Go to the homepage of this list.
<p>2. Click on "Database"
<p>3. Click on "FORT"
<p>4. There will be a table with 220+ rows in it as I recall -- there
are about 20 rows per page. You can navigate to the next page by
clicking on the arrows at the top of the table on each page.
<p>5. When you find the first row where you need to add in some posts,
first check to be sure it isn't already full (each row will hold about
40 message #s). If it's not too full, click on the "Edit" icon to
the far left of that row. It will take you to another screen, where
you can fill in your message #s. Once you've filled them in, just
click "Save Record." If your browser is like mine, it will take you
from there back to the very beginning of the table (even if you were working
from page 9 of the table). I've been using the "back" button on my
browser to find where I was again more easily.
<p>6. If a row is too full or if you need to add a row to cover a
topic that hasn't been covered before, just hit "Add a Record" at the top
of the page. It will ask you for a topic description & give you
space to put message #s. Then, just "Save Record" as you did above.
<p>7. Probably a good idea to read through the entire table first
-- some of the topics were named things that weren't necessarily the same
naming custom I might have used.
<p>Let me know if either of you need me to manually enter your posts into
FORT as I can do that if you need help.
<p>Thanks --
