Defining Classifications

WinMSS provides the ability to retrieve and assign International and Regional Classifications to those members (and competitors), that have been classified by the International Classification System (ICS), providing you have entered their IPSC Alias into WinMSS.

To assign International and Regional member Classifications:

1.	After you have established your Membership Database, select Tools > Classification > Update Membership Classifications... from the menu on the WinMSS main window. The Membership Classification Update window appears.

2.	Click OK, to start the classification update process. During this process you may see errors reported in the text-box that appears in the bottom half of the window. Note: This classification update process requires an Internet connection and will fail if an Internet connection is not available.

3.	Click on the Print button, to keep a hardcopy of the classification update log.

4.	Click on the Close button to close the window.

Once you have established a member in the WinMSS Membership Database, you may assign User Defined classifications to them. This feature is not available immediately when you are creating a new member, but becomes available when you edit an existing member (clicking Apply adds a new member and makes these fields available).

To assign User Defined member Classifications:

1.	Select a Member from the Member List.

2.	Make sure that the Member tab is selected.

3.	Make sure that the Classification tab that appears in the Member tab, is selected.

4.	Choose the User Defined Classification cell that you want to edit by clicking on it with the mouse, then either double-click on that cell or press the F2 button, to place it into edit mode.

5.	Either choose a Classification Code from the drop-down combo-box, or type the Classification Code into the cell.

6.	Repeat step 5, until you are finished filling in the User Defined Classification cells for this member.

7.	Click Apply, to save the changes you have made.
