the Photographs panel, where the selected file(s) are displayed.

Select or deselect the check boxes (in both the Photographs and

Students panels), ensuring that only the files and names that you

wish to match are selected.


IMPORTANT NOTES: The number of selected check boxes in the

Photographs and Students panels must be the same. The Attach

All button becomes active only if the number of files and names

listed in the two panels is the same.


Click the Attach or Attach All button to temporarily associate the

selected photos with the selected pupil/students.

NOTE: The association between the photo and the pupil/student is

based on the order in which the selected photos and pupil/students

are listed. Since the order cannot be changed, a mismatch may occur.

If a mismatch is found, it can be detached later in the process.

file dialog. Navigate to, then highlight the licence file, then click the

a mismatch is found, highlight the record in question, then click the

Detach button. Individual photos can be attached using a similar

process, after the batch import is complete.


Click the Import button to attach the photos to the pupil/student

records. When the cursor is positioned over the double-line, it

changes to a symbol enabling the bottom panel to be dragged
