2.2 Set Display Date
When there is a combination of all year courses and semester courses
in the same Master Schedule, individual student schedules may change as
the school year progress through its terms. Schedules may also change from
time to time within a scheduling term due to walk-ins, cancellations
or withdrawals, etc. To view a student's schedule as of a specific day
within the school year, set the "display date" in the Show Schedule
as of field (Fig. 12). (The default display date is Today's date).

To change the default date, double click the field or click on the field
button to activate a drop-down calendar (Fig. 13). Use the small VCR buttons
to navigate the calendar to the target month. Select the target date within
the target month until it is highlighted in yellow. Then click on the Select
command button. The calendar will close and the target date will be copied
into the date field.

changes that have been made for this student as well as all term marker
dates. Select a target date with the mouse and the display date will automatically
