You have timetabling to do? Crikey! <br><br>They nearly squashed me this year with assessment and reporting on top of a reduced time allotment. I am now on a first name basis with the school cleaner, learned many Greek phrases. Hope that you manage to figure out the blocking grid. When users grumble, I often remind them that free choice over subjects and rooms is over-rated anyway. Bought me time .. <br>

Hi Jaskson,<br>
<br>
I hate to correct you, but that is a biometric swipe, NOT a keyboard swipe.<br>
<br>
At Mt Baw Baw we use keyboard swipe (magnetic Cards) for login into our Point of Sale system. Each user is issued with a magnetic card, this is encoded with the users ID. With this we can authenticate their staff billing account, login to the system as a user, and validate their discounts.<br>
<br>
The card itself looks like a credit card.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
Warrick<br>

Subject: [Year 12 IT Apps] Keyboard Swipe and Security<br>
<br>
I have seen a pupil using a keyboard swipe to access password protected sites, software and files.<br>
<br>
He literally 'swipes' his finger across the home row keys on a qwerty keyboard.<br>
<br>
His password is: ASDFGHJKL;'[enter]<br>
<br>
And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is a keyboard swipe.<br>
<br>
(The kid is not in my IT class, so I take no personal responsibility for his stoopid password...I did have a chat with him when I saw him do it,<br>
though)<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
