Description<br />

Choosing specification number 1 brings up a window listing your report<br />

card columns. From this list, choose the column into which you wish to<br />

calculate an average.<br />

The default status of this specification is No. This means that if a grade<br />

already exists in the column for which averages are being calculated,<br />

the program will not replace it. In other words, it will not calculate an<br />

average for the course. If you change this option to Yes, any existing<br />

grade in that column will be replaced when you calculate the average.<br />

This specification tells the program what type of grades you will be<br />

calculating. In calculating averages, the quality point table is not used.<br />

For number grades, the value used is equal to the number. For letter<br />

grades, the value for each letter is taken from a hard-coded table. To<br />

see the table and read a detailed description of how number and letter<br />

grades are calculated, see “NUMBER GRADES” on page 5-9.<br />
