Networking
Secure Perfect requires that you set up a network protocol to allow the server and clients to
communicate. Secure Perfect uses the TCP/IP network protocol.
You will need to validate visibility and connectivity to the client and servers by name resolution. (Secure
Perfect uses PC Names only.) The following describes two ways to validate operations:
• Envoking Ping: Select Start, then Run. At the Open field, type command. A DOS-like window opens.
At the prompt, type ping pcname where pcname is the name of the PC to which you are validating
visibility and connectivity. If you receive a response of an unknown host, you will need to re-examine
you TCP/IP configuration. If you receive a reply, the client/server is online and available for
connection.
• Start, Run, PC Name: Select Start, then Run. At the Open field, type //pcname where pcname is
the name of the PC to which you are validating connection. If the connection is valid, you will see the
shared folders on the remote PC.
If you are using Token Ring and/or TCP/IP, you are encouraged to contact your system administrator
for local requirements and restrictions.

New Record
File Menu Item
The New Record menu option creates a new record preloaded with default data. This is the best way to
start or add a new record as the default data often saves you from entering in the data. The New Record
option is available only when a form is open, contains records, and you have been given permission to
update records.
Clicking this icon on the Secure Perfect toolbar can also access this option:
New Template Dialog
Use this dialog box to create a new template. You are prompted to enter the name of the template you
want to create. Keep in mind that any information currently on the report form will be saved under this
name.

if there is one.
