Let's see if the file attachment feature works.

The above report is a one page plan spec in Crystal report format.
(Quantech/Relius 6.0)
There are a few items that are pulled from user definable fields - e.g. plan name is user alpha field 11 and 12 because I didn't want to print the company name attached to it.
definition of comp is user alpha field 1 -e.g. date of participation or YTD
actual hours to receive match is buried under hours for retirees because you might be running plan monthly but have a 1000 hour requirement and therefore you have match hours = o just so the system will allocate the match each month.
if you have downloaded, and tried it, any comments greatly appreciated. 1. we are seeing if this feature works.
2. I am seeing if its worth putting more reports out here.
thanks!

By the way, I love the new feature! Twice today, I've had to refer to private letter rulings which were not available online. In each case, the ruling was too long to fit into a message, and besides, it would have taken up a lot of space on the board. But by attaching it as a text file, I make it easy for people to view, without distracting those who aren't interested.

I also appreciate the ability to use attachments. However, it is very annoying to receive attachmwnts where the sender did not describe what kind of file it is, or what application is used to view it. Is there a way to address that?

I don't think so. Only certain extensions are allowed by the software (though I can expand the list, as I did with the ".rpt" extension that Quantech uses for certain reports). Most or all of those extensions (e.g., .txt) should be recognized file extensions that are already associated on your computer with commonly installed Windows programs (e.g., Notepad).

OK. Perhaps my problem is that I don't recognize all the extensions listed. For example, I don't know .rpt or .png. Thus, I don't have access to all the necessary applications.

RPT is Crystal Reports (right, Tom?) -- PNG is a graphic format that is better than GIF and was supposed to replace it, but I'm not sure the most recent browsers are even supporting it (after CompuServe decided the GIF format was proprietary).

you are correct Dave in regards to .rpt
