    First Use

    If you are familiar with templates then you might want to copy the Character Generator template to the standard windows template. Otherwise open as you would any other template.

    You probably won't have a Database the first time you use the Character Generator. So the Generator goes through a certain procedure every time it is started up. It exits the procedure as soon as it has a valid Database.

    • Looks for the Database at the location set the last time the Generator was used.
    • Looks for the Database "CP2020data.xls" in the current directory.
    • Asks you if you want to create a new one. Then if you click "No"..
    • Asks you to select a different Database.
    • If you cancel this last step then the Generator will close.

    It is not possible to use the Generator without a linked Database.
