When I try to install Student Manager Reports, I get "Error 1327: invalid drive."

This is usually caused by an invalid entry in your Registry. Use RegEdit to check the values of the following Registry keys (you may have to get a technical support person to do this if you haven't used RegEdit before). One or more of them may contain an invalid drive letter.

How do I do change the location of Student Manager Reports data files?

Reports are shared by specifying a common location for where Student Manager Reports stores its own data files. The first time you run Student Manager Reports, it asks where you want to store its data files. If you choose a local directory (the default is the directory Student Manager Reports is installed in), you can't share reports. To change that location, see the Changing the Location for Reports help topic.
