Once more, locate the SEND file in your c:\vhmthphy folder, and open the file. Copy its contents to the clipboard (this is a common operation, but in case you don't know how, just use CTRL-A to highlight the contents of the file and CTRL-C to copy the contents to the clipboard). Then return to the form that instructed you to run this program, and paste the contents into the indicated box (just right-click in the box and select Paste). You may now click on the Quit button, or simply close the program.

This program has created the folder c:\vhmthphy on your hard drive.

Browse to that folder and locate the file whose name begins with SEND. The name of this file will also include your name, as you gave it to the program, and the file will show as a Text file.

Never tamper with a SEND file in any way. It contains internal codes as if these codes are tampered with you won't get credit for the assignment. However you are welcome to copy this file to another location and view it, make changes, etc. Just be sure that when requested to do so you send the instructor the original, tamper-free file.

State in the Answer box whether or not you have been able to locate the SEND file. Don't send the SEND file yet. Note that more questions/instructions remain in the q_a_prelim.

I was able to locate the send file on my hard drive

`q002. Note that every time you click on Enter Answer the program writes your response to your SEND file. Even if the program disappears all the information you have entered with the Enter Answer button will remain in that file. This program never 'unwrites' anything. Even if this program crashes your information will still be there in the SEND file. Explain this in your own words.

Once you enter a response it is there forever no matter what.

Any time the instructor does not post a response to your access site by the end of the following day, you should resubmit your work using the Submit Work form, and be sure at the beginning to indicate that you are resubmitting, and also indicate the date on which you originally submitted your work.

If you don't know where your access site is or how to access it, go to

http://www.vhcc.edu/dsmith/_vti_bin/shtml.dll/request_access_code.htm and request one now. You can submit the q_a_prelim without your access code, but other assignments should contain your code.

RESPONSE -->

If I have to resubmit anything just put resubmitting at the top and the original date sent.

`q003. If you are working on a VHCC computer, it is probably set up in such a way as to return to its original configuration when it is rebooted. To avoid losing information it is suggested that you back up your work frequently, either by emailing yourself a copy or by using a key drive or other device. This is a good idea on any computer. Please indicate your understanding of this suggestion.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Make sure you don't lose any work by e-mailing a copy to your self.
