||
|
Solution: Testing
has been performed and no problems were found. Note: Student access can be restricted on the workstation.
However the PeachTree update must be run before the students can successfully
access the program. The PeachTree update can be located by browsing to the ./PCW9ED/Update folder (on the CD or
on the network) and double-clicking on the win2kxp.bat file. You can also run this by going into the /PCW9ED/PEACHW (on the CD or on the
network) and double click on the autorun.exe. Once the first screen is
displayed click on the link labeled Update
for Windows 2000 & XP. Our customers
use a wide variety of operating systems and applications, and our software
must be developed to be used on some lower end systems to meet customer
needs. Because of this, we cannot
guarantee our software will always work as expected as new operating systems
and other applications are developed.
We encourage you to give our products a 'test drive' on any new system
you plan to implement. If you are not
satisfied with the performance of our product, we will do our best to deliver
a compatible product to you in a timely manner or refund your money. |

Solution:
If you browse to the network and double click on one of the tutorial’s .mov files you will get: Couldn’t finish initializing application
because file was not found. The program will not find the QuickTime .mov files because the file names are very long and Novell 4.11
has issues with them. Unless Novell 4.11 can be updated to work wit |

|
|
||
|
Solution: No,
the conversion guide is designed to work only with First Year Accounting. |
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Solution: The accounting program is launched by the control.exe. Control.exe is also the executable for the Control Panels. If the
customer restricts students/teachers from the Control Panel the security program cannot tell the difference
between the two files and will not allow the program to launch. Rename the control.exe, alter the short-cut to
reflect the name change, and the program should launch just fine (assuming
the patch has been run and the students/teachers have sufficient rights to
the server). |
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Solution: Locate and delete the files xcdzip.dll and xcdunzip.dll.
If the customer installed the Accounting
2000 Demo CD on the computer, these files should be located in the C:\Glencoe\ELCDEMO\MGMT folder. |

|
Issue: Will the available
QuickBooks templates work with QuickBooks Pro 2005 or newer? |
||
|
|
||
|
Solution: The QuickBooks
templates included with Using
QuickBooks with Glencoe Accounting are upward compatible and will work
with QuickBooks Pro 2005. The new QuickBooks
Pro software will identify the
templates as QuickBooks files and
convert them automatically. Note: The Users’ Guide screenshots and remaining content
will not fully match the new software screens and interface. QuickBooks has not changed
significantly from 2003 to 2005 but there may still be discrepancies. |

Issue: How can I review the

Outer Banks
Marketplace Inc (teacher) lists all the manual solutions to transactions. 3.

Marketplace Inc, User Guide for Peachtree with Solutions, provides
