RE: [CTPP] RE: ctpp-news Digest, Vol 67, Issue 7

All--- I remember that there was an indexing issue with the later versions of Microsoft. There are two things you can do: I. Make sure nothing is hidden. 1. Open the "My Documents" folder and click on "TOOLS" and "FOLDER OPTIONS." 2. Click on the tab that says "VIEW" 3. On Hidden files and folders tab, ensure that the radio button "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also ensure that the "Hide extensions for known file types" is NOT checked. II. Ensure that the indexing service is turned on. 1. Open "My Documents" and Navigate to the folder that contains your CTPP data (c:\00\ctppdata for example). 2. Right click on the folder and click on "Properties" and then on "Advanced." 3. Ensure that the check box "For Fast searching allow Indexing Service to index this folder" is turned on. Most problems should be fixed by these two steps above. Almost all 32 bit applications should run on a 64 bit computer. I would google the specific error you have or visit the Microsoft Help desk. http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/41531554-d5ef-4f2c-8 fb9-149bdc5c8a701033.mspx#EDH.

Please remember that Vista didn't eliminate the crashing problem, it just reduced it. Also, I got a new computer when I went to Vista, and it's possible the bug was a hidden "dll" or other file in my old computer, which Nanda Srinivasan had said might be the cause of my troubles. Also, be prepared as you go to Vista, because if you also go to Office 2007, it takes some learning. A year and a half down the road, I think the new versions of Excel and Access are a little more efficient once you learn them, but they're quite a bit different and will slow you down for the first 2-3 months. The new pivot table system in Excel is more fun and easier to use - once you learn it! At least that was my experience.

In fact, the CTPP browser's performance has gotten better. With Windows 2000, the browser would always crash when generating a new file. I could still use it, because I could re-open the browser, and the newly generated file would appear as if nothing had gone wrong. With Windows Vista, the crashes have dropped from 100% of the time to about 30%, so it's an improvement. Don't ask me what this means - I don't know. Just wanted to share my experiences with the group.

TransCAD provides Table Choosers for Parts 1 and 2, and a Matrix Chooser for Part 3. The data for Parts 1 and 2 are available for download from the TransCAD User Center, and the data for Part 3 can be requested from TransCAD Tech Support. If you have 1990 CTPP Data CDs, TransCAD has a utility for opening Part A, B and C tables from the Statewide Element and Part 1, 2 and 3 tables from the Urban Element. There are also TransCAD Table Choosers for ACS data. We are building the Table Chooser for the 2008 ACS 1-year data that were released yesterday and will do the same for the 3-year data that will be released next month.
