Choosing a Subset

The subset used by Classroom ConQuest is specified by a file containing a list of CSD refcodes.

 

The default refcode list is classroom_default.gcd which is located in the user_defaults directory.

 

You can elect to use a different subset of up to one fifth of the number of entries in the current version of the CSD. This can be done by:

 

•	Replacing the default file with a new one that has the same name.

•	Editing user_defaults/conquest_options so that the line beginning classroom_refcode_list = ... indicates the location of the refcode list to be used (specify the full path). For Windows use forward slashes (/) in the path instead of back slashes (\).

•	Selecting a different subset using the Select New Subset button to select a different refcode list. This button is displayed when each Classroom ConQuest session is started (see Basics of Using Classroom ConQuest).

 

Although Classroom ConQuest will start if your refcode list is too big, it will issue an error message when you attempt to start a search.
