Q: How do I enter pictures for listings in Appraise@?

1) After taking the pictures, put the pictures in your computer (i.e. floppy drive if you use the Sony Mavica or "my pictures" if you use a USB digital camera).

2) Find the folio number for each property using Appraise@- as an example, the folio number for a property we just took two pictures of is folio #47878.

3) RENAME THE FIRST PICTURE you want to show up first for the listing
a) Right click on the picture from your camera (in floppy drive or folder from digital camera)
b) Left click on "rename"
c) Type in "147878a.jpg" for a sales listing.
i) If it's a rental listing, type in "247878a.jpg".
ii) If it's a vacant land listing, type in "347878a.jpg".
d) Press the "enter" key on your keyboard.

4) RENAME THE NEXT PICTURE for the same listing.

7) COPY ALL THE PICTURES AND PASTE THEM INTO THE "RECEIVE" FOLDER OF THE SERVER
a) Select all the pictures you just renamed (go to "edit" on the top menu and "select all" or highlight with you mouse, right click, and copy.
b) Now, if you are on the server (main computer in the office), double click "my computer", double click "local disc C:", and then right click over the folder named "Receive" and left click "paste".
c) Now, if you are on a computer that is not the server, double click "my computer", double click "C: on server F:", and then right click over the folder named "Receive" and left click "paste".
