Crystal,
What software is your front office using. We are using School Minder and SM
doesnât care what the teachers name their gradebook files. Maybe you are
using a different front office solution.

My district presets the name for files before the teachers upload their grade
books. They are told NEVER to change this name, because this is what is used
when the grades are downloaded for report cards. We too use the attendance
option, which is great, as long as the server is running. When it isn't, there
are problems.

Glen,
How can I go in and âseeâ otherattendance? Nobody has told usabout this as
far as I know. Wewere also told the same thing about being able to send grades
and some of ourchanges were not accepted because people had named theirs
incorrectly. We have had some major issues as I thinkmost of the system has.
Maybethings are getting better. :-)

Are there more issues inGQ 10 than previous versions or is my district just
getting a little over thetop? For example, we use gradequick to send
attendance in themorning. GQ now has a feature that allows other gradebooks
to"see" that information in their attendance. This seems to me agood way to
verify attendance across the day. But some people don't likeit. What are your
thoughts?
Our district has told us we are to name our gradebooks in a certainformat. At
my school we were told this is so gradebooks for a certainclass could be found
easily. At a friend's school they were told thatthey would not be able to
"send" grades unless they were named inthis format. We download rosters that
are updated over our Student InformationSystem module. Mine update just fine
by the roster code even though Inamed mine incorrectly (I downloaded my rosters
and named them beforeI got the memo, so much for being an early adopter!)
My last question is about the password on the GQ login. I know thisis built
in if you have a site license for GQ10 (we do). My issue is thatnow we have
TWO login's and passwords for GQ. The first is to log on tothe network drive
that holds the GQ program. The second is the GQ loginfor the now password
protected folders on the GQ drive. Two passwordsseem needlessly redundant
since it seems more likely that teachers willactually just leave GQ open all
the time now. Anyone know aboutdeactivating the second password on the network
install? (not that the ITpeople are ever opposed to redundant passwords!
BTW, my true GQ annoyance is that they have now gone through the 5th
versionwhere the print screens don't work well. Up to version 5 you could
printblank rosters or gradebooks using only the keyboard. Now you have to
usethe mouse because the "OK" button won't work with the"Enter" key. Also you
can't scroll with a wheel mouse onthe "Print Preview" screens.
Any magical answers??
