Growth II / Simply Growth - known issues & update history
Growth II: We have not had any reported problems - Ask PISCES
Simply Growth:
When a data file is opened, all the data are dumped into the first cell, rather than opening in the grid properly
This is usually because there are one or more blank cells in the second row of data. If the blanks are replaced by zeros, or another row with no blanks is put in the second position, the problem should disappear. Row 2 is the crucial one; blank cells are tolerated elsewhere.
'' is not a valid floating point value.
This will occur if the raw data holds blank columns or rows. Remove blank columns and rows by using 0 issues in the working data window. It may also occur if the raw data holds a blank cell. In some cases Simply Growth will identify the problem cell which should be edited. Normally it is because the data has been prepared in a spreadsheet using blanks to represent zero values.
I/O error 32 - access denied
This will occur if the data file you are trying to open is currently being used by another program - normally the spreadsheet which was used to organise the data. Close the file in other programs and try again.
