Enter the bus/stop number in the popup.

OK - Click to continue.

The new number will appear in the list on the right side of the screen.

Note: Adding a bus means that it shows up on the list on the right hand side temporarily. After you choose some students and pick the new bus number from the right hand side, that will

keep the bus number for all future instances of the program. The newly added bus is there only long enough to be able to add a student to it. When you enter the program, it pulls the

buses from the student information. If all you do is enter the program, add a bus and exit, and you have not added a bus to a student, the list does not populate.


To remove all Bus Numbers from the top right column

Click in the bus number and/or bus stop cell on the row of the student names.

An asterisk * will appear.

Select the blank top line from the list on the right.

All asterisks will be replaced with blanks.

A message that all records have been updated will appear. Click to continue.

The bus number and/or bus stop will now be blanked out.

Do this procedure for all bus numbers and/or bus stops which attached to all students and there will be no more bus names in the top right column.
