== How to Copy your F&R Codes from the WinTos Server to TermiteKiosk (Microsoft Access) ==
For customers who already own the Microsoft Office suite, you should be able to open the database file through Microsoft Access.<br>
#First open the database with Microsoft Access, then scroll down the tables and double-click '''PredefinedComments'''.<br><br>[[File:Access1.JPG|600px]]<br><br>
#Open up the Finding & Recommendations import excel template. If you haven't downloaded it already, go to TermiteKiosk - top navigation panel > Codebook > Finding & Recommendations Codes > Import List > '''Download Template'''.
#On the Access table, click on the top row ("CommentNum" and "Comment" respectively). When you select "'''CommentNum'''," the whole column will be selected. Press Ctrl + C to copy the selection, then switch to the excel template. Click on the box right under "'''Code'''" in Column A (A2) and Paste (Ctrl + V). Do the same with "'''Comment'''" and paste it under "'''Description'''" (B2). <br><br>[[File:Access3.JPG|576px]]<br>[[File:Access4.JPG|600px]]<br><br>
#Next on the Excel template, click on "'''Custom'''" under '''Type''' (C2). With it selected, scroll down to the end of the code list, and click the final box in the C column at the end of the code list and click on it while pressing the '''SHIFT''' key.
