Text of the page (random words):
some of these minor bugs will be ironed out based upon the minor problems i have scene so far i have come to the conclusion that i would only be able to utilize online shared spreadsheets either in google or zoho as places to upload from a local drive so that people in the field could look up and access information and perhaps people in the field could add data in small sheets which would then be uploaded into a desktop database i have attached one of the test sheets do feel free to use the test data in any way you like since they are not real people i pasted lists of common last names and first names found on google to create the names i made most of the dates of birth for people over age 50 so that no one would confuse the data with that of children since in america the laws are sensitive regarding the privacy of children s data information regarding privacy and security of zoho i am curious to know if there have been any substantiated reports of hacking or files being compromised i realize that privacy and security will become a central issue for anything involving the school records of minors but i also realize that in america there are many public and charter schools which really need a cloud computing ability so that all schools would use the same standardized software and function under the same security and privacy protections that is to say it is not wise or practical for each and every school to farm out their application needs to some amateur employee who knows some excel or access nor to farm it out to some 3rd party consulting group perhaps this need in american schools might provide an advantageous project for the zoho company to undertake i am certain that the technology at the disposal of zoho engineers would make it easy for zoho to develop a pilot project for this application here is the link to my blog post where i have gathered some information about the student record problems in american schools https williambuell wordpress com 2010 09 30 electronic storage of student records click here for the above link i am new to zoho docs and i did notice some problems with embedding links and having them correctly parsed i am also beginning to blog about my zoho experiences at my wordpress posted in programming zoho leave a comment poetry and open source october 7 2010 barbara thanks light breaks where no sun shines where no sea runs the waters of the heart push in their tide http www poemhunter com poem light breaks where no sun shines poor dylan thomas was drinking two quarts of whiskey per day at the end most end stage alcoholics such as o henry and alan watts max out at one quart when i was in high school i assumed that do not go gentle into that good night was about his aging father but no it was about himself as the doctors told him if he did not stop drinking he would die he did die at age 36 regarding zoho i think that all programs and data should be available on the cloud internet in open source not proprietary and at a reasonable price people should be able to easily share and collaborate on documents spreadsheets there should be a wysiwyg what you see is what you get database generator similar to microsoft access or visual foxpro now discontinued one should not have to be a rocket scientist in apache mysql php known as wamp in windows and lamp in gnu linux ubuntu oh and gnu stands for gnu is not unix which is oddly recursive unix started out as open source but then became proprietary so linux was the resulting revolutionary protest posted in facebook programming leave a comment zoho cloud computing october 5 2010 i went to http zoho com and signed up for a free personal account which gives me a gig of space and zoho desktop applications for spreadsheets documents presentations etc my particular interest is spreadsheets and the ability to share them on line with other collaborators zoho offers a great deal of compatibility with microsoft s vba visual basic for applications i decided that i would like some vba code which will automatically date time stamp each row as it is modified i searched in google until i found the following tutorial link http en allexperts com q excel 1059 automated time stamp htm here is the code and explanation that i needed if you want to get fancy you can totally automate the process by attaching a macro to the worksheet right click on the sheet tab and select view code then paste the following macro in the window private sub worksheet_change byval target as range if target column 1 then exit sub target offset 6 time end sub what is does is monitor for any changes you make to the worksheet with every change the macro is run it checks to see if the change was made in column a target column 1 and ends if if it wasn t otherwise it places the time stamp in column f of that row target offset 6 you could also have it automatically enter the date in column e for you too by adding this line target offset 5 date or putting a date time stamp in column e target offset 5 now so all i had to do on my zoho spreadsheet was to right click on the tab of sheet1 and then click on view code i choose the event change from the drop down box and find that some code is already present so i simply insert the above code in the proper place so that i have rem sheet module private sub worksheet_change byval target as range application enableevents false on error goto enev rem add your code below if target column 1 then exit sub target offset 6 now enev application enableevents true end sub end of code of course i need to format the cells for date time i wanted to test the share with collaborator feature i created a group called wbuell then i sent an invite to a different email address that i sometimes use when i logged into my other email account i saw the zoho invite which requires me to join zoho with a login id and password i am able to share the same spreadsheet between my two accounts one interesting thing i noticed is that the datetime stamp code above was giving me a different time when logged into my other account it is necessary to go into the account settings and specify the correct time zone in my case gmt 5 new york i notice that an upload to zoho of any excel spreadsheet from my local hard drive is limited to 50 megs which is a size that allow me to create 10 000 address records in my test spreadsheet it may be possible from within zoho to create spreadsheets much larger than 50 meg i know that google documents spreadsheets can not be larger than 1 meg which allows me room for about 2000 address records in my test application i did notice some instability in zoho when i attempted to use copy and paste to increase my spreadsheet from 4000 records to 10 000 records in the sense that some cell formulas in some rows were corrupted hopefully there would be no corruption if the rows were added one at a time in a normal data entry fashion from day to day but i shall only know that if i use zoho daily for some period of months tags macro spreadsheet vba zoho posted in programming zoho leave a comment electronic storage of student records september 30 2010 one suggestion is to write about all this to communication services boces of nys 355 harlem rd west seneca ny 14224 http www archives nysed gov a records mr_data_storage shtml further according to 8nycrr regulations of the commissioner of education section 188 11c local governments are legally required to store backup copies of archival electronic records in offsite facilities these facilities may or may not be owned by the government but they should ideally be far enough from the government s primary facility to ensure the accessibility of the records in the event of a regional disaster to be legally compliant local governments must submit a formal letter concerning the storage of their electronic records in a facility that is not owned or maintained by the government to the state archives director of government

infringement of basic liberties this has led to the belief that special safeguards should be developed to protect against potentially harmful consequences for privacy and due process the committee was
