Description
This specification permits you to print transcripts from directories in
which you have already archived. In such a directory, you should set
this specification to “1” and Specifications #1 and #2 to one year less
than you would in the current year. For example, a high school that
normally prints transcripts from the current year with Specifications #1
and #2 set to YEAR -3 and Year 0, respectively, will leave this
specification at “0”. However, if they print a transcript from last year's
directory after they have archived, then they should set Specifications
#1 and #2 to Year -4 and Year -1, respectively, and they should set
Specification E to 1.
NOTE: You can also open a previous year’s directory to print
transcripts.

FOR WHICH
COLUMNS
Only courses in the range set by these specifications will be printed on
reports. When printing by sections, only sections in this range will be
included. For example, if you want to print mailing labels for only course
#50, BAND, set both specifications to course #50 and then choose to
print labels by sections. These specifications work in conjunction with
the COURSES NOT TO PRINT specifications. For example, if you
choose to include courses 100 through 900 and exclude 400 through
500, you will only see courses 100 through 399 and 501 through 900
on reports.
The ~ComparX~ code (where x is any report card column 1-11) prints
the narrative comments for a specific grading column. You can use this
specification to determine which column’s comments to print.
