Good morning all, NCEAD is North Carolina's state working group to establish EAD standards and support tools. Kathryn, we use the NCEAD templates and stylesheets at the North Carolina State Archives as well. I suspect it may be an issue with the stylesheets and address files, although without being able to look at your files it is hard to say for sure. You can contact me directly if you want to talk through the issue or I can put you in touch with someone at NCECHO if you would prefer that. -Ashley ******************************************* Ashley Yandle Information Management Archivist Information Technology Branch North Carolina State Archives 4614 Mail Services Center Raleigh, NC 27699-4614 (919) 807-7329 (voice) (919) 733-1354 (fax) Email: [log in to unmask] Opinions expressed above are mine and may not represent those of my agency.

We've tweaked all of the components substantially and have created a zip file. Both our version and the original Chris Prom version unzip and create directories on the C drive only. We've found that we can not "share" files on our networked drives; we can copy them only. We can only work/create/edit/parse/transform when it is on our C drive. I'm not sure exactly what NCEAD is, but perhaps the program and package have to be loaded individually on each C drive as the Cookbook. We also purchased additional licenses. Hope that helps...

Staley Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2008 2:41 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: another question I am the processing archivist and the primary encoder in a growing shop. We use NoteTab Light with NCEAD_2002 clips and stylesheets. Four computers, used by student employees and one archivist tech, are networked to mine. Until recently, I created all new files, but the staff and grad asst. will begin creating files as well. In our test runs, we have learned that none of the networked computers can create new proper finding aids. They do not insert the administrative information, such as the institutional name, header entity, etc., within the document. Two also have pop-up boxes stating that there was an error. Can anyone tell from this brief description whether this is a network issue or a style sheet issue? Thanks, Kathy -- ----------- Kathryn L.
