School of Population Health 2. Installation and requirements

The SPAN zip file unzips to occupy about 5 MB. Simply unzip, using Winzip,  to a directory of your own choosing.

2.1 SPAN on the internet

The most up-to-date version of SPAN will be available from here. It will be an unregistered version. This means it will only analyse the first 100 records of data.

When you choose to register SPAN by sending an email to rj.marshall@auckland.ac.nz, you will be assigned a registration number.  Enter this into the SPAN programme via Help:Register, and the 100 record restriction will be released.

2.2 Version

There are no "versions" to SPAN; it is regularly updated and hopefully improved.  The zip file that is downloaded from the internet site will be the most recent.

When SPAN is run a logo window initially appears and is minimised with the title caption SPAN #00.... The number here is a reference, to be cited in communications with me.
