Thanks for your class Craig. As a new Blocks novice I can't wait to begin using your files and then start working outward from there into the program. I'm sure the notes will be helpful.

Absolutely enjoyed your eye opening demo. I have had Blocks since SnapSheet and really have gone nowhere until I saw how you unlock the power of Block. I have been staying up everynigh since last Saturday learning the tool. I am sure that I'll have plenty of questions, but I'll leave them for another topic.

Thanks again!

Hi Craig,
I don't have the "Strategy Conditions" file for the .scond files. Should I just create one? Or do I need to do something in Blocks so it creates one?

Your seminar was great! It was a lot. I look forward to some instructional videos, though, because it's all over-whelming.

Are you using Version 1 or 2. If you are using version 1 you should put them in your Blocks Conditions folder.

Thanks for coming to the class!

Hi Craig,
I'm on version 2, it says.
I played with Blocks... I went to try to add a strategy condition and chose my computer. It said no file found, but then I clicked on the file icon in that list, and the program then created that folder. I had to do the same for the "Strategies" folder. Also, for the bscan files, wouldn't they go into the BackScan folder (vs strategies)?
Thanks!

mbeierle,
While you may need to create the folders (or save the appropriate file type from within the program) first, the file locations specified by Craig in his Sunday, June 17, 2007 6:20:30 AM ET post are correct. The BackScan and BackScan Condition folders are for Version 1 of Blocks.
