You may prepare a report listing the status of bills of special interest
to you. This is a two step process, first create a file containing a list of
bills and then submit the file to produce a report containing the status of those bills.
You can create as many profiles as you desire, but each one must be placed in a
seperate file with a different name.

Create a list within a text (.txt) file using any standard word processer, e.g.,
Microsoft Word or text editor, e.g., Notepad.
|
- Do NOT insert any special codes, fonts, etc.
- Make sure full justification is turned off in the document.
- Do NOT insert any spaces between the comma and format name.
- A maximum of 500 bills can be placed
in one profile list.
- When you save the file, select one of the .txt file type options
from your word processor's list of "Save as types" (e.g., "Plain txt (*.txt)",
"ASCII (DOS) Text (*.*)", or "DOS Text").
- The file's name should be: name.txt, where "name"
is a descriptive name (e.g., Healthcare-Bills) which you can use to identify
the profile.
- Make sure that each time you edit the file
that you save it as a text (.txt) file. Note that you may be asked each time
you open the file if you want to convert it to the word processor's format.
Respond yes to this question. You may be asked each time you close the file
whether you want to save it as a text (.txt) file. Respond yes to this
question also.
- Save the file in a folder on your computer created to hold profiles.
You will need to supply the file's full path name
as part of the submission.
