Your Install Directory

The batch grouper is very easy to use.  When you install QuickSnap, the default directory is:

Windows 7 or 8: C:\Program Files (x86)\AHSRI\AHSRI QuickSnap

Windows XP: C:\Program Files\AHSRI\AHSRI QuickSnap

You may have chosen a different directory when you ran the installer.  This folder will be referred to as the 'install directory'.

Open a command prompt window and navigate to the install directory

  • Click the Start Menu:  then click: All Programs - Accessories
  • Click the item 'Command Prompt'

In this window type the following, depending on your 'install directory':

  • cd "\Program Files\AHSRI\AHSRI QuickSnap"
  • cd "\Program Files (x86)\AHSRI\AHRSI QuickSnap"
  • cd <install_directory> (replacing your install directory)

Press <enter> to confirm this command.

Run QuickSnap

Use the following command:

	QuickSnap <file_format> <input_filename> <output_filename> <error_filename>

 Here is an explanation of the parameters:

  • File Format: 
    • AN-SNAP v3 formats:
      • 1 - QuickSnap Native Format
      • 2 - QuickSnap DSS Compatible Format
    • AN-SNAP v4 formats (only available from QuickSnap 2.0 (not yet available)
      • 4 - QuickSnap Native Format v4 (FIM Detail)
      • 5 - QuickSnap Native Format v4 (FIM Summary)
      • 6 - QuickSnap Native Format v4 (Full Detail)
      • 7 - QuickSnap DSS Compatible Format v4 
         
  • Input Filename: name of the input file containing AN-SNAP data items e.g. C:\SNAP\snap_source.csv
  • Output Filename: name of the output file to create, which will contain the same data with the AN-SNAP class or error-class at the end of each line, e.g. C:\SNAP\snap_output.csv
  • Error Filename: name of the error file to create, which will contain a list of the errors , e.g. C:\SNAP\snap_error.csv

QuickSnap will tell you if it was able to process the input file.  If successful, you will see the message:

  • 'Successfully processed your SNAP data.'

If it was unable to read the input file, or create the output or error files, an error message will be displayed.
