Version 3.1 (04/30/2004) Attendance Application:
  • A new check box is at the top of the screen next to the mouse/keyboard select buttons.  This check box turns on a 'trouble shooting' mode when gathering attendance from the teachers.  This only needs to be turned on if you receive an error when gathering attendance from teachers.  Here are the details...
  • You can now print Today, 24 Hour, 48 Hour and Problems lists without having to change to those lists first.

Student Schedules
  • When sending class lists to teachers from Headmaster, you will now be warned before you RESET or OVERWRITE class lists and have the opportunity to back out of the procedure.  When you MERGE you will not be warned, as usual.
  • Headmaster will auto-detect the presence of Grademaster Platinum and turn on the demographics check box for you when sending out class lists.
Version 3.05 (03/12/2004) Now Headmaster can be updated with the click of a menu item.  Go to Help, Update Software.  Click OK in the black box that pops up.  Depending on the speed of your internet connection, Headmaster will be updated to the latest version of our software within minutes.  Be sure that everyone is out of Headmaster before running this update or the update will fail.
Version 3.01 (03/10/2004) Oops, a spelling error on the caption in Headmaster GOLD.  Thanks Suzy for pointing it out!
Version 3.00 (03/09/2004) DROPPED CLASSES:  Until this last release, course extensions and student status didn't transfer to the Dropped Classes tab.  Now, there is another column where the student status or course extension can be stored.  If you have already dropped students from the first semester, you will only need to add the course extension number to that column.  Save the changes and the course with extension name should appear.
ATTENDANCE: Gather a lunch count now (Requires Grademaster Platinum V2.70 or greater).  In the attendance gather screen, check the box by 'Lunch.'  At the end of the gather report, you will see a total lunch count gathered from teachers.  Also on the report, you will be able to tell if a teacher didn't complete the lunch count.
Version 2.98 (2/16/2004) Transcripts - Transfer current: has been changed in order to help avoid problems when grades are transferred after a new quarter has started.  When you choose the semester you want to transfer, the application will automatically pull the date from your calendar.  Don't like the date?  Override the date and put in your own!!!

Version 2.97 (1/30/2004) Patched Schedule application problem with 1st and 2nd semester classes
You can now recover data from one of our backup files (Help>Restore Data).  Use with caution!  All data and reports will be overwritten by data contained in the backup file.
Important: back up your data as often as you'd like by selecting Help>Backup. NOTE: Headmaster has to be installed and registered on the machine from which you are attempting the backup.
Version 2.96a (1/16/2004) Fixed Attendance problems caused by move to 15 ATT types...Scott's first train wreck!!

Version 2.93 (11/14/2003) You'll find two new entries in the Help menu.
Select Backup to make an "zipped" archive of all of your Headmaster© data in the backup folder of your hdmstr folder. The footprint is fairly small, and your data will be where you/we can get to it conveniently. If it only takes a click of the mouse, why wouldn't you create a daily backup??
If you are having trouble with your data, call us for a daily maintenance code then select the item Send Data to place an image of your data on our secure FTP server. This should be much simpler for you that "zipping" and emailing your data and it allows some of you to get around pesky email firewalls.
