Value |
Description |
cabextract |
The path to the desired location of the CabExtract folder. The path must end with a terminating \ |
The location of the CabExtract folder in which temporary files are held during subject and study import. If the setting does not exist, the folder will be located within the application folder. |
in folder |
The path to the desired location of the In Folder. The path must end with a terminating \ |
The location of the In Folder which contains sample study and laboratory definitions. If the setting does not exist, the folder will be located within the application folder. |
out folder |
The path to the desired location of the Out Folder. The path must end with a terminating \ |
The location of the Out Folder which is used to store any study definitions, subject data and laboratory definitions exported via the System Management module and any queries created in the Query module. If the setting does not exist, the folder will be located within the application folder. |

Alternatively, you can use a regular expression to specify the drives (see below). |
permitteddrivesregex |
Regular expressions of drives and directories eg TSClient[0-9]{1,} |
Only used in conjunction with the 'hostedenvironment' setting (above). Specifies the regular expression of the drives and directories to which the user has access when using 'Open/Save File' browse windows throughout MACRO. |
See the Output Options for the AR module.

yes, no |
If the value is set to yes, or does not exist, partial date handling is enabled in Study Definition. If the value is set to no the feature is not enabled and study designers will not be able to specify that date questions can accept partial dates. More information on partial date handing...
This setting only affects the Study Definition module. It is not possible to switch off partial date handling in Windows Data Entry. This means that if a study is created in Study Definition which contains partial dates, these partial dates will be active in Windows Data Entry even if partial dates are switched off in the Settings file. |
