The continuing saga of census input. Spent about two hours on answering the
questions at the site. This time I was smart enough to copy and paste my
inputs in a word file. So , if it didn't work there I have the content. At
the end I said yes to being contacted. It asked for name address etc. I
typed A and it got filled in by I guess an app in my system with a complete
response.
I got WRONG FIRST NAME - imagine that - I took the caps out
I got WRONG LAST NAME - I really thought I knew my name - I took the caps
out
I got WRONG PHONE NUMBER - same as last time - redid the number
I got WRONG PHONE NUMBER - at least one more time maybe two after retrying
options
I erased the phone number - the machine was happy with that - so was I
I think it made it. someone let me know if it didn't I will send my word
file. Not a great way to spend the time. Alan

Subject: [CTPP] CTPP county-to-county flows
I am trying to cross-check a simple table of county-to-county flows for my
metro area (Little Rock AR). The online CTPP software is time-consuming and
astonishingly counter-intuitive. Does anybody know a quick tip for getting
the basic residence-to-work flows by county? I need the data but have a job
to do and can't spend a week clunking around at transportation.org/ctpp
etc...
I'm already signed up for the CTPP webinar in June but need my data before
then.
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
