MartinWatch form from PMCA

[rickluc]

I downloaded the form from PMCA and installed the data I wanted to send in. I tried to send it to Sallie and it wouldn't. It said something about an unsafe file. I then tryed to get it printed out. My printer wanted to print 2086 pages. I only had 6 bird entryes. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Rick, are you using the mac or pc martinwatch form? We'll get this figured out. We appreciate you keeping the data and sending it in for the annual martinwatch report - coming up in the Jan 2011 Update.

Some suggestions to try:

If you installed data via copy/paste there might be macros in the document which could come up as unsafe-there should be a way to send it anyway-see if you can ignore the warnings and all that and send via email.

Or try to select your print area in excel (or whatever program you are using) then select whatever you want to print and it should only be a page or two.

Or if you can use a screencapture, you can send us the image file.

Please see if one of those will work for you and let us know.

I sent you an email and attached the file to it. I think that worked because I send a copy to my self. Can you please confirm? In my copy I sent to myself it still shows something like 15000 lines. I don't know if I can print that out for my records. Thanks for the help.

To [email protected]? If so, I have not received it yet.

I'M SORRY, I sent it to [email protected]. Thanks

[Louise Chambers]

All's well Rick - I got the copy you sent me, and Sallie has the one you sent her. thanks for helping by participating, we appreciate it very much.

Thanks for the help, Louise. Can you or someone give me some ideals on being able to print this out. What am I doing wrong? My printers says it going to print out 1500 pages. I can't figure out how to highlight just the 12 or so lines to just print them. Thanks

[Louise Chambers]

With excel, you should be able to drag the cursor to highlight the pages you want to print - is that something you've tried?

[rickluc]

If you mean to push down on the left mouse button and drag it across the part of the forum I want to print? Yes

Rick,
My Excel program gives me options when I print a document. I open the file tab in the toolbar at the top and open the print option. The screen allows me to print the entire notebook--an endless number of pages; or specific pages--in your case probably page one to one (the number of pages could be determined by adding page breaks and doing a print preview); or, finally, to print active pages--those pages containing written material. The final option will only print out pages that have been used, and is the default I normally use.
You could also scroll over the active sheets as has been discussed, hit copy, and then paste it on another document or email it. Or you could print that selection by choosing the print selection option.
I opened the PMCA Martinwatch report form and was able to do those things set forth above. I did not try to send in any data.
Good luck, and thanks for sharing your data with PMCA's research base.

If I do a print preview it shows the first page down to line 17 which is enought to include all my entries. The boxes going to the right only goes to column G, projected hatch date. Then if a click the next page it drops down from line 18 to line 68. I need to go from column H to AC. How can I do that? Thanks

Also some where in there I have a place where I entered my name and address. How do I include that in my printed forum? Thanks again

I sent mine by mail. I expected a email or something letting me know they got it. I guess I will call to make sure.
