Access the Import Students facility using the "Import
Students" button from the Student Data screen. This feature has a multi-screen
wizard-like format with only one field you will need to complete:
ODBC Data Source Name (an
ODBC DSN you set up on the web server)
Note: Be sure you have properly formatted your
spreadsheet, including defining your "NamedDataRange"
as “Student_Data” per the on-screen instructions. Make sure that all the
correct column names are in Row 1 of the spreadsheet.
You also need to set up an ODBC data source name on the Web
Server to point to the spreadsheet you are importing from before running the import
process.
Automatic Enrollment on Import –
You can also choose a class and/or a competency into which all Imported
students will be automatically enrolled. This reduces the workload for both you
and the student for common classes since no one has to complete the enrollment
screen for these students and these classes.
