Output for Buttons

You will want to make a team button for each camper. Do this by generating an Excel file from TACO. Excel provides a variety of formats in which a file can be saved.

Follow these steps:

  • Go to Print Reports (button upper right of Main Menu);

  • Select the Camp tab;

  • Click the button to the left of "Camp Roster";

  • A new Excel file named "Camp Roster.xls" is created and saved in your My Documents folder.

Now, in the Camp Roster file delete the columns you do not need for your buttons. This is probably everything except Camper Name, Camp and Team Color.

Then, click on File (in the Excel Menu Bar) and Save As... . At the bottom of the pop-up dialogue box, click the drop-down list for Save as Type and select the type of output you need.

Almost all programs accept "Text (tab delimited)" files. You can also output in Apple MacIntosh format with "Text (MacIntosh)".

Chat with the person making the badges to see what they would prefer.
