Hi there,

We discovered that elements E484 and E485 have not been removed from the
enrolment file structure in DESTPAC. See messages below to DEST.
Does this affect anyone else?

Hi Jan,

Unfortunately removal of E484 and E485 was made official in the 'Changes
for 2004.doc' (copy attached) so our IT staff have already altered our
file structure to remove them. There was nothing in the readme.txt file.
Was there any official notification to Uni's to leave them in? Can you
tell me how many other Uni's have already 
altered their enrolment file to remove these elements? (We are very busy
and would prefer not 
to spend time changing file structures again at this stage).

Andrea.
