WardInfo – Tips And Tricks

WardInfo is normally straight-forward to use, but some tips and tricks help.

Building One Version

To build just one version (such as the bishopric version) with all of the normal parameters, use the BuildAll.Bat command with the name of the version you want to build. Versions are named bish, priest, relief, youth, leader, and member.

C:\WardInfo> BuildAll.Bat bish MyPassword “My Ward”

This command will only build the bishopric version, including the html and isilo outputs.

Saving Input Files

To save all of the input files used by WardInfo, you can put the keyword ‘save’ just before the password on the command line, such as.

C:\WardInfo> BuildAll.Bat save MyPassword “My Ward”

This command will save all of the input files into a dated directory in the C:\WardInfo directory for later reference.

Sending Files To One Person

To send to one person in the Destinations.Dat file, use that person’s name as an argument to the SendAll.Bat program, like this:

C:\WardInfo> SendAll.Bat Kimball

This command will send the proper files to all persons in the Destinations.Dat file whose name includes the string ‘Kimball’.
