CHM Help
To overcome users being unable to access the CHM file on a networked drive we have enabled the CHM file to be stored locally. Enter the full path name for the location where you would like to store a copy of the SuperVal chm file. This will also enable actuaries within the organisation to have access to the on-line help system.
html Help
The html Help can be accessed from a hard drive (local or networked) and also directly from the internet by specifying
https://superval.uk/{version number}/
where {version number} is the system version number eg "9.31".
Preferred Access Provider
Users can now select their preferred Microsoft Access Provider. Note that this is at User Level as the Microsoft Access Provider may differ at machine level.
Leave it blank and SuperVal will determine which Provider is installed on the machine.

Message Display Time
Messages appearing with a progress bar (such as the Log Off message) will be displayed for the period specified here (in seconds). These messages can be cleared earlier by simply pressing the OK button.
This message display is also used for any Error messages resulting from a valuation run in Unattended mode. This ensures that subsequent valuations will be run rather than waiting for user intervention to clear the error message.
The Change Password button
Pressing the Change Password button will present a form in which the user’s password can be changed.
Note that the User Preferences must be saved in order for the change in password to take effect.
Save
Clicking on the Save button allows you to save the entries.

In some of the screens you will be asked to confirm if you want to exit Ignoring all changes. If you click Yes, the file will be closed without saving any changes. If you click No you will be returned to your original screen.
