Software Checklist

Checklist for Networked Solution

Completed	Action to verify
	I realize that, since I'm working in a network scenario, a user cannot work in the program on the Server computer. For example, if you have two user licenses, then you need three computers: the server (which only serves the files) and two client computers that Users actually work on.
	I understand the diagram: How Network Seats are Used.
	The resolution of my client machines' monitors is set to 1280x1024. [How do I do this?] Right-click on the Desktop and choose 'Properties'. Click the 'Settings' tab. Use the slider to move the monitor's resolution to '1280 x 1024' if available. If you are using a widescreen or nonstandard monitor, try to choose a setting with the second number being as close to 1024 as possible. [How do I do this?] Right-click on the Desktop and choose 'Personalize'. At the bottom, click 'Display Settings'. Use the slider to move the monitor's resolution to '1280 x 1024' if available.

Click the last link, 'Turn User Account Control on or off'. Uncheck 'Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer.'
