file types
in cbs almost all reports are generated as files.
we can open these and save these files easily.
dot htm.
most of the small reports are in this format.
pass sheet is in this format.
v can open this file and save this file easily.
if u want to change anything in this file
open the file using any html editor like front page.
dot pdf.
many reports available in the reports websites
( like business objects ) is in this format . u need a
pdf reader to open this file. adobe pdf reader can be
downloaded from the cannet site and can be installed easily.
contents of pdf file cannot be changed. we can at best fill
up certain blanks if v have a pdf editor. pdf editor is costly and
is not provided by the bank.
printing a pdf file is very easy. we can select the required pages.
no need to print the whole report. in fact printing itself is not
necessary . simply save it and query it. select edit from the top bar
and type the string which u want to search . for example if u want to
know whether a o d is due for a particular account simply query the
prr12 report with the account number or name and if necessary print
that page for records.
excel files.
these files are used to uplink data to the server. u need excel
programme to open these files. ask the windows vendor to install
the program if it is not availbale . ( earlier these programs were
deliberately deleted while loading windows in some cases ). excel is
the modified version of our good old spreadsheet. excel is very useful
in handling data in the form of tables.
dot doc files.
use microsoft word or openoffice programme to open
these files. open office is available for free download
( probably in our cannet site) . doc files are essentially text files
with enhanced editing features.
dot txt files.
simple text files . opens in note pad .
can easily be attached to an email
as in line text . ( not as attachment but
as text in the message itself ).
what we are saying is
install pdf reader , excel , openffice etc
and enjoy the reports features of cbs.

access tips
migration is over. cbs is up and running but you fail to access
the system. you click an icon and wait but nothing happens.
cbs is an application program running on internet explorer.
if the access problem is seen on all nodes probably it is due to
indequate bandwidth or or problems at the database centre.
we can do litlle other than posting the problem on remedy. remedy
is a website address on which you can make entries which
will be read by the head office team. they will address your problem
and post the action taken. you can login into remedy to see the status.
remedy can be accessed from any node . just type its url in the address bar
of the internet explorer. to use it again keep a shortcut on the desktop by
going file and clicking send. user id is TVM....(dpcode) for
trivandrum circle branches. default pass word is CANARA.
if the access is problem is seen only in some nodes try the settings of internet
explorer. click tools / internet options / security /trusted sites / custom level .
ensure that use popup blocker is disabled , software channel permissions is
low safety . most other options are enabled but compare with the settings in a
working node before changing the options.
at the trusted sites you can click on sites and add the current site. ( it would
have been aded already but nothing wrong in adding again) .
please also go to file and see that work offline is not ticked.
the measures suggested above are emergency steps to get the system going.
the correct way is to get the settings checked by an expert. cbs team can access
your node using the program called vnc. ( get the program installed in your nodes.)
cbs team needs to know the address of your node for remote access. to know the
address just keep your mouse pointer on the vnc icon at the right bottom of your
desktop.
so what we are saying is
if you face access problem in all your nodes report the
problem and seek remedy.
if the problem is only in some nodes check up the settings
