Saving a Class

Each time you add or edit assignments, get scores, edit your roster, or edit the preferences, be sure to save your class file.

When you choose to save a class, any updates made to the roster, assignments, scores, and preferences are written to your
class (CLS) file. In addition, roster updates and assignment preference changes are written to your online test (EOT) files.

TIP

Be sure to save often. In addition, it is a good idea to back up your class files regularly.
