According to various postings, manuals, etc., the format for a batch file to add several users to a course in Blackboard is : login id,user last name,user first name,email, password, role, etc I understand that login id and role are the only fields required if for example the user has an account. 1) Do I need the comma after the role entry? 2) what are the values that can be entered for role? Similar for batch enrolling from the Admin panel, there is an optional "Role in Course" parameter. If this is left as blank, what role does the user take? ---------------------- Gary Michael Clay Learning Development Manager The Learning Development Centre [log in to unmask]
