3.6 Changing the Region
(PC*MILER|Worldwide only) The prototype for the SetDefaultRegion function is:
SetDefaultRegion (RegionName)
NOTE: Sample workbooks using this function are in the Excel folder of your
PC*MILER installation, usually in C:\ALK Technologies\PMW25x\EXCEL. See
section 1.3 for a description of the provided workbooks.
To enter location data for regions outside North America, there are two ways to
select a region. You can use the SetDefaultRegion function or you can edit the
PCMSERVE.INI file and change the region default from there.
Here are the steps to take to edit the PCMSERVE.INI file:
1. Find the PCMSERVE.INI file in your Windows or WINNT folder, and open it
using Notepad or another text editor.
2. Find this line:
[Default]
Region=NA
(If the line is only “Region=”, the default value “NA” is active.)
3. Type another region after “=”. Choices are:
� NA for North America
� SA for South America
� EU for Europe
� AF for Africa
� AS for Asia
� OC for Oceania
4. Save and close the file.
5. You must close and reopen Excel for the region change to take effect.
