Resources directory

In the resources directory all files are stored that have been generated by Diversity Descriptions, e.g. due to export. Furthermore you may store files here that shall be used for data import into the Diversity Descriptions database and the error log file. The resources directory may be set via the menu Administration-> Resources directory … (see image below).

There are 3 possibilities for the resources directory:

Select the “Home directory” of the user (may be definded via %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%)
Select the “My Documents” directory of the user
Select any directory you have read/write access (User defined)

The default is set to Home. Below this node the directories “DiversityWorkbench” will be created and below that “DiversityDescriptions”, which will contain all files that a Diversity Descripiton user needs user need access to. If you install additional Diversity Workbench applikations and use resources directory option “Home directory”, they will all get dedicated directories under “..<user>\DiversityWorkbench\”.

Certain directories are hidden (Query, Settings, Spreadsheet) and are handled by the software i.e. the content should not be changed by the user. The other folders (Export, Import and so on) are a copy of folders placed in the program directory (see below).

Tutorial files

For DiversityDescriptions a number of tutorial files are available that provide examples, e.g. for using the matrix import wizard. To copy the tutorial files into your resources directory select Administration-> Tutorial files … from the menu.
