IE7

As part of the early adopter training we were asked to upgrade to IE 7 (Internet Explorer version 7 - thought I'd better tell you that because I decided pretending I knew what IE meant for such a long time at the training was counter-productive). Anyone using EDVOL (online risk assessments for trips and visits) were told last year that IE 7 conflicted with the EDVOL system and we must not upgrade. The new advice is UPGRADE to IE 7; no worries. The only thing you won't be able to do is edit users. So if you want to edit an existing user, add a new one or remove a user you will need to eamil EDVOL team directly on:

In fact here's the email from David Wheal:

Morning!
You’re right to ask about this as there has been a few problems with EdVol and IE7. However, I wouldn’t worry too much about it as the problems are easily remedied. The only problem you will see is that using IE7 you won’t be able to access the staff database to add/remove staff members from EdVol, but I’m guessing that your staff turnover isn’t too high!! If you do need any changes done you can email me and I’ll do them for you.

Also, it looks like we’re finally in a position to start the move over to that new system that I came over and demo’d to you in February and that works better with IE7 anyway.

So in other words, ‘Go for it!’

Hope you’re well (and yes it is sunny down here too!)
