Difficulties using the database
I am such a techno-failure. The only option I seem to get when accessing the vermiculite database is to enter new data, where as I am hoping to find out where I can buy verminulite in southeastern Wisconsin.
Can anyone help me?

Difficulties using the database
I got the same thing. It looked like I had to set up a Google account and I really don't want to do that so I just exited out.

Re: Difficulties using the database
Hi,
If I understand your post correctly, you can't read the database without signing up for a google account? I looked at it anonymously and can't duplicate that.
Anybody else?
Just for grins, try reading the database here:
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AkxGrCEb40U2dExrM09fbk9zWnE4cC1Gb2oyamVOMVE&hl=en

Difficulties using the database
Well, I guess it's just me then. I tried it again, clicked on US db and got a screen for goodle docs that you have to have an account to enter. Oh well. I probably don't need it anyway - I was just curious. Am really looking for a location where I can get some wholesale for resale since it's so hard to find but apparently there aren't any close to me in NC.
Glad it's working for everyone else. It's all right.

Re: Difficulties using the database
Uh, gee, thanks. But I didn't do anything!
The link code I posted was the same as what the button links to. Nobody is supposed to need a google account to view or enter data from our button links.
Keep me informed, please, if it happens again. Since I can't duplicate it, can anybody post a screenshot showing 'the must join' window?

Re: Difficulties using the database
At this very second minute, there are four anonymous viewers. What are you guys seeing?

Boffer,
I would but I don't know how. Don't worry about it though. It isn't essential that I get to the information. Thanks though.

Re: Difficulties using the database
Bec, if you are anywhere near Spartanburg, SC, you can get vermiculite very reasonably from Palmetto Vermiculite in Woodruff, SC.

Re: Difficulties using the database
I'm seeing what you just posted ... I signed in using my google email address, and then I get a chat box that indicates "anonymous user 155" is viewing... for a minute, another anonymous viewer number was there, too.
I can access all the data. I didn't try entering into chat. Want to give that a try boffer?

Re: Difficulties using the database
A google account of any type shouldn't be needed to view the database or enter data. I've cleared my cache and cookies so I'm anonymous-I can enter and view no problem.
Re: Difficulties using the database
It is. What do you think?

There's no need to sign in when you're looking at the database. All you can do is look. The sign in is for managers of the database to fix errors, etc.

The first image is not what I'm setting - I see the page with the 4 buttons to chose from. But the second image IS what I'm seeing.

Re: Difficulties using the database
So, I went out yesterday and found vermiculite at one of the places posted on the database. Now I have price and size info that I'd like to add. I tried inserting it, but it wouldn't work.
Yesterday I was a techno-failure. Today, I'll call myself a techno-fraud! I tried, but no luck. Any tips?

Re: Difficulties using the database
When you go to the database, you should see four buttons
1: enter US data
2: view US data
3: enter international data
4: view international data
and one more button underneath to report problems.
Button 1 brings you to the fill-in form to add data to the DataBase
Button 2 shows you the DataBase for the US, sorted by state
Button 3 is the form for entering international data
Button 4 shows the international DataBase.
You SHOULD be able to access any of these through the main 'DataBase' link.
It may take a little while for entries to show up in the database.
I wonder if some people have difficulty based on what browser they are using. I have no problem with either FireFox or with IE. If you still have trouble, and can get to the HELP button on the page, or post underneath here. I know Boffer and Ward are trying to iron out all the glitches.

Nah, you're just a geek in training!!
Sit tight, I'm writing a 'how-to'
Re: Difficulties using the database
.
.
You must be logged in to the forum to see 'Vermiculite Database'
If you want to add a retail source to the database, click on the 'U.S. Form' button
That will open a window that looks like this. Enter your data appropriately.
If you are looking for vermiculite and want to read the database, click on the 'U.S. D.B.' button. That will open a window that looks like this
NOTE: no further log in is required. The log in is for database managers. All you can do here is read-you can't make changes. If you see errors in the database, please let the database manager know. Just use the 'Please report problems' button.
Is it clear as mud now?! I'll move this to the 'how-to' forum once the questions are answered.
Thanks
