Re: GEMS 1-17-11 ballot generate error

I attempted to recreate the problem and couldn't.  It was definitely 1-17-11.  I should have sent the backed up database.\
 
The message I received initially wasn't friendly.  'Ballot not generated for some precincts' definitely is.

This error doesn't make sense.  GEMS 1-17-11 didn't exist on Nov 16, 2000.  What version are you really running?
 
As to your "database with no precincts" description, I just created a database with no precincts.  No internal error, just "Ballot not generated for some precincts".  Now, that's not accurate, the ballots are generated for all precincts (we have been over this before), but some people seem to like that behavior.
 
Finally, as to the friendliness of the message, seems pretty friendly to me.  What would you prefer it said?

Subject: GEMS 1-17-11 ballot generate error

I received the following error message when attempting to generate ballot artwork in GEMS 1-17-11 using a database with no precincts defined.

 

 

How about a more user friendly message?
