>From memory Ros (I don't use this package but have heard about it) .. James might be right about CSV file imports, I also recall that the comment bank is part of the reporting program. There is no need to actually download it although there is provision for sharing comments etc. <br>
<br>Sounds like your FirstClass contact at school hasn't given you the password .. (sigh) .. I reckon if you contact them directly, they will pass it onto you or tell you what tiger to poke with a stick .. although could be the daily organiser (ouch) !<br>

<p> </p>
<p><span>Hi all,<br>
Our school has changed for the Quick Vic Reporting System (made by the Mark
Book people) to First Class.<br>
Unfortunately the cdb files which most staff have created over the years in
Quick Vic are incompatible with First Class, so all teachers in the school must
begin from scratch and create their comment data banks again.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any First Class Comment Banks they would be willing to share,
OR any idea of how to convert the Mark Book Comment DataBase (cdb files) into
something that will work with First Class??<br>
<br>
Thanks <br>
Ros Meadows<br>
