B. Installing PSS2002

This disk contains the Proposal Submission System (PSS2002) for paperless submission of GLNPO Proposals. PSS2002 can also be downloaded from <http://www.epa.gov/glnpo/fund/2002guid/pss2002/index.html>. PSS2002 is intended to be used with the criteria and other information contained in this Great Lakes Funding Guidance.

PSS2002 requires Windows 95 or better and a screen display of at least 800x600x16 colors (256 colors or better is preferred). Windows supplies a number of different display driver options that are accessed from the Start->Settings->Control Panel->Display->Settings panel. See your Windows manual or call Tony Kizlauskas (312-353-8773) or Pranas Pranckevicius (312-353-3437) if you need help with the display settings or any other technical question about the PSS2002 software.

After downloading the self-extracting archive file SETUP.EXE, receiving it as an Email attachment, or receiving it on disk, to install PSS2002, you can do either of the following:

  1.  Run the program SETUP.EXE (a self-extracting archive file) by double-clicking on it in Windows Explorer or
  2. 2. Run the program SETUP.EXE from the "Run" command from the "Start" Button.

Either way, Click "Install" at the Welcome Screen, then wait. Click "OK" at the Installation Completed Screen. The program will create a new subdirectory (C:\PSS2002) and install itself there. It also creates a Program Group, PSS2002, to allow quick access to both the Program and the User's Manual (which you are now reading).

Obtaining Help

The User's Manual is accessible from within the PSS2002 program by selecting "Help ->Read User's Manual", or outside the program by:

From the Start Menu, select "Start -> Programs -> PSS2002 -> User's Manual".

C. Using PSS2002

To run PSS2002:

From the Start Menu, select "Start -> Programs -> PSS2002 -> PSS2002".

After the program starts (there may be a short delay), click on the menu item "Create/Edit->Proposals." This will allow you to enter proposals and to view proposals already entered. The table lists basic information about any proposals you have entered. To enter a new proposal, click on the "Create" button. To Edit or Delete ones you have already entered, select (highlight) the appropriate line in the table by clicking on it and then press the "Edit" or "Delete" keys, respectively.

Once in the data entry window, called either "Creating a Proposal" or "Editing a Proposal" depending upon whether you are entering a new proposal or editing one that you had worked on previously, you move to the appropriate data fields by clicking on the numbered tabs at the top of the data entry form. Where and what data are to be entered is fairly straightforward and "hint balloons" give further hints if you hover your Windows cursor over a particular data field.

Entering Data

Most data are entered by simply clicking your Windows cursor in the appropriate field and typing in the information.

Data for some fields, such as "Title" or "Type of Organization," are entered by selecting the appropriate value from the drop-down list which one accesses by clicking on the down arrow to the right of these fields.

Some fields, such as "Abstract," will contain more lines of text than will initially be displayed on the data entry screen. Use the vertical scroll controls on the right side of these data fields to view the other lines or use the usual Windows navigation controls (arrows, PageUp, PageDown, etc.) once you have clicked within the field to place your cursor within the field.

NOTE: In order to limit the proposals to a reasonable size, there are size limits on the narrative fields, like Abstract, Problem Statement, Proposed Work/Outcome, etc. If you find that you cannot add any more text to one of these fields it is because you are attempting to exceed those limits.

You can use the Windows clipboard to cut, copy and paste information between a Windows text document you have already created and PSS2002, or within PSS2002 itself. To copy from your document, select the text you wish to copy and choose "Edit->Copy" from the main window menu of your program. Now switch to PSS2002, place your cursor (click) in the field you wish to paste the information, and choose "Edit->Paste" from the main PSS2002 window menu. Caution: Some Windows software embeds non-printing formatting codes that you can't see on the screen, but which might get included in the text you are trying to copy to PSS2002. This may cause PSS2002 to crash. To be safe, copy and paste information only from a simple ASCII text editor such as Notepad (which comes with Windows). If you already have the information in another program, such as a word-processor, you can save the text as an ASCII text file, then open it in Notepad and copy it from there into the appropriate fields in PSS2002.

Data for some fields, such as the Lakes, States, and Geographic Initiatives on TAB3 Geographic Applicability, are selected by clicking on the appropriate selection box to toggle the selection on or off.

Moving Between Fields/Panels

To move between the fields within a particular data entry panel, use the Tab key or move the cursor to the field and click on or in it. Do not use the "Enter" key to move between fields, use it only at the end when done entering or changing information.

To move between the different data entry panels click on the tabs at the top of the data entry form.

Saving Information

When you are done entering or editing information for a proposal, either use the "Enter" key, or click on the "Save" button at the bottom of the data entry form to save your work.

If you wish to stop entering information and not save the information or changes you have been working on, click on the "Cancel" button at the bottom of the data entry form. If you have made any changes or entered any information, you will be given a warning allowing you to either save your work before leaving the data entry screens (the "Yes" button), not save the changes (the "No" button), or resume working on the form without saving (the "Cancel" button).

PSS2002 will not let you save the information you entered unless you have completed the following: Name of Organization, Contact First and Last Names, Phone Number, and Project Title. If you wish to perform the data entry over several sessions, you must at least enter this information the first time you begin entering information for a particular project. If you try to exit without saving the required information, your cursor will be automatically placed in the missing field, allowing you to enter the required information. You may, of course, go back and edit the saved session by highlighting the appropriate line in the "Browse Proposals" window and clicking on the "Edit" button.

If you submit multiple proposals, see the note, entitled "Multiple Proposals" later in this document.

D. Line-by-Line Instructions

This information entry box is hidden from Applicants for other categories of funding. (There is a 1,000 character limit for this field.)

PROJECT MILESTONES (TAB 5)

Milestones. Specify milestones and/or final products and projected due dates (Month/Year, in MM/YYYY format). You may describe up to 8 milestones/final products, including Project Start and End. If you would submit a full proposal in May, your project could begin in May or June; however, most usually begin in September or October.

EJ/EDUCATION APPLICABILITY (TAB 6)

Environmental Justice. Check box and include a narrative description if some part of the project addresses "Environmental Justice." Environmental Justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. Fair treatment means that no group of people, including racial, ethnic, or socioeconomic groups, should bear a disproportionate share of the negative environmental consequences resulting from industrial, municipal, and commercial operations or the execution of federal, state, local, and tribal programs and policies. (There is a 2,000 character limit for this field.)

Budget. Fill in the applicable budget items in the table to show how GLNPO funds and non-GLNPO matching funds will be used for personnel/salaries, fringe benefits, travel, equipment, supplies, contract costs, construction, and other costs. You may include a separate line for indirect costs if your organization has in place (or will negotiate) an "indirect cost rate" from a cognizant Federal agency. The GLNPO share represents the total which the Applicant expects to request from GLNPO for the project's duration (up to two years). Funding will be awarded as a "lump sum" and is not assured for subsequent years. Do not include commas when entering the budget amounts. Totals will be calculated automatically. Pressing "Calculate Totals" displays intermediate results.

OTHER SOURCES OF FUNDING (TAB 8)

Other Funding. If funds are being pursued or have been committed to your Project by other providers, list the Name of the Providers, Amounts Provided, and Commitments made by each. (There is a 2,000 character limit for this field.)

COLLABORATION (TAB 9)

Collaboration/Community Based Support. Describe plans and status of collaboration amongst the public, private, and independent sectors. Evidence of support will be required for full proposals. (There is a 2,000 character limit for this field.)

When you are done entering or editing information for a proposal, SAVE the information by either using the "Enter" key, or clicking on the "Save" button at the bottom of the data entry form. (See the "Saving Information" section above.)

E. Printing Proposals

CAUTION: Always finish entering information and save your work before printing (a good rule to follow for any software), otherwise if PSS2002 crashes, you may lose your work!

To print out the proposal information that you have entered, close any open proposal editing windows ("Creating a Proposal" or "Editing a Proposal") and select "File->Print Proposals" from the main menu of PSS2002. After the records are processed, you will be taken to a print preview window to allow you to preview your printout and to select which pages to print before you actually print them. The functions of the various icons on the print preview toolbar are explained below. (Here, as elsewhere in PSS2002, "hint balloons" give further hints if you hover your Windows cursor over a particular toolbar icon.)

Print Preview Toolbar


Explanation of print preview toolbar icon functions (numbers below refer to the above diagram):

  1. Print the report. (Select the range of pages to print from "File -> Pages to Print" on the main menu. You may also select "File->Print" from the main menu to print the selected range of pages.)
  2. Exit print preview without printing anything. (You may also select "File -> Exit" from the main menu to exit without printing.)
  3. Zoom the page to a selected size (You may also select "Zoom" from the main menu and select a size.)
  4. Move to a particular page (You may also select "View" from the main menu and select a page to go to.)
  5. Select how to tile the pages by picking the number of columns and rows to view at once. NOTE: You must first select "View -> Tile Pages from the main menu to see the tiled pages.

When you move your cursor over the previewed page, it changes to a magnifying glass shape to signify that it can be used to rapidly zoom the preview in or out. By clicking the mouse when the cursor is the magnifying glass shape, the zoom will toggle between the "No Zoom" and "Page Width" view settings.

F. Submitting Completed Proposals

Address/Deadline. Proposals must be received by February 15, 2002.

Use one of the following 2 methods to submit the completed proposals.

  1.  Submitting Proposals by E-Mail (preferred method). Compose a simple E-mail transmittal having a Subject of "Proposal Submission - ", followed by the Applicant name (the organization, not the individual). Attach a copy of the data file, APL2002.TPS, and send the E-mail message with the attached data file to: glnpo.funding@epa.gov.
  2.  Submitting Proposals by Regular Mail. In case your E-Mail system does not allow you to send attachments, you can submit your Proposals by Regular Mail as follows:
    1.  Locate the Data File, APL2002.TPS

      To simplify finding the data file, APL2002.TPS, PSS2002 has a new feature to export the data file to a floppy disk for you. To use this feature, simply Select "File -> Export Data File to Floppy Disk" from the main menu in PSS2002 and follow the on-screen instructions.

      Of course, you can also find the file manually by looking for APL2002.TPS in the "C:\pss2002" subdirectory on your computer.
    2. Copy the data file, "APL2002.TPS," onto a floppy disk and mail it to:
      • USEPA - GLNPO (G-17J)
        77 West Jackson Boulevard
        Chicago, Illinois 60604-3590

G. Multiple Proposals

Please also use the Proposal Submission System to submit multiple proposals. If your organization submits more than one Proposal, please identify an overall Contact Person (including phone, e-mail, and address) and send a single, coordinated submittal, prioritizing the proposals. PSS2002 provides this capability -- see the section "Merging Multiple Proposals into a Single Data File" below for how to do this.

Also, please be sure to merge all of the proposals your organization is submitting into a single data file, then please fill in the assigned "Rank Within Category" for each proposal on "PSS2002 TAB (2) Project Summary Information." See instructions below for how to merge proposals.

Individuals from the following organizations have offered to serve as coordinators for proposals from their organizations. Please contact your coordinator first if you plan on submitting a proposal on behalf of one of the following organizations:

H. Merging Multiple Proposals into a Single Data File

PSS2002 allows you to merge proposals from different APL2002.TPS data files into a single data file. This means that the proposals can be prepared by different people at different locations (home, office, laptop, etc.) and they can later be combined into a single data file for submission. This is especially relevant when multiple proposals are being prepared by different individuals but being submitted by a single organization overall contact who also assigns the organization's rankings to the various projects (see above).

To merge proposals prepared using PSS2002:

  1. Obtain the APL2002.TPS files that are to be added to the main file and have them on hand for the next steps, e.g., on different floppy diskettes.
  2. Start PSS2002 on the PC that will hold the main file.
  3. Select "Merge->Proposals into Database" from the main PSS2002 window. This brings up the "Add proposals to Database" window.
  4. In that window click on the button "1. Select File Location" and use standard Windows file navigation techniques to select the location and name of the PSS2002 data file that you are going to add to the main database.
  5. If you change your mind at this point and wish to exit without adding the proposals to the database, you can press the button "Cancel" to exit without adding the proposals from the selected file.
  6. After making your selection, press the button "2. Merge Proposals" to actually merge the proposals into the main database.
  7. Press the button "3. Done" if you are finished adding proposals, or repeat steps 4 through 6 to add additional proposals from other data files.
  8. Once the proposals are merged into the main database, you can use PSS2002 to edit them further (e.g., delete duplicates, correct information, etc.).

I. Importing Proposals from Previous Proposal Submissions

If you wish to use a proposal that you prepared in PSS1 / PSS2 / PSS2000 / PSS2001 previously as a starting point for this year's submittal, PSS2002 allows you to import proposals from the old format (APPLY.TPS / APPLY2.TPS / APL2000.TPS / APL2001.TPS) into PSS2002.

To import proposals prepared using PSS1 / PSS2 / PSS2000 / PSS2001:

  1. Obtain the APPLY.TPS / APPLY2.TPS / APL2000.TPS / APL2001.TPS files that are to be imported and have them on hand for the next steps, e.g., on a floppy diskette.
  2. Start PSS2002 on your PC.
  3. Select "Import->PSS1 Format File" or "Import->PSS2 Format File" or "Import->PSS2000 Format File" or "Import->PSS2001 Format File" from the main PSS2002 window. This brings up the corresponding "Import Proposals ..." window.
  4. In that window click on the button "1. Select File Location" and use standard Windows file navigation techniques to select the location and name of the PSS1 / PSS2 / PSS2000 / PSS2001 data file that you are going to import.
  5. If you change your mind at this point and wish to exit without importing the proposals to the database, you can press the button "Cancel" to exit without importing them.
  6. After making your selection, press the button "2. Import Proposals" to actually import the proposals.
  7. Press the button "3. Done" if you are finished importing proposals, or repeat steps 4 through 6 to import additional proposals from other PSS1 / PSS2 / PSS200 / PSS2001 data files.
  8. Once the proposals are imported, you can use PSS2002 to edit them further (e.g., delete duplicates, correct information, etc.).

J. Uninstalling PSS2002

CAUTION: Be sure you have backed up the data file "APL2002.TPS" to a floppy disk or to a subdirectory other than C:\PSS2002 before you uninstall PSS2002, otherwise all of your work will be lost!

When you no longer need PSS2002, you can uninstall it using the following steps:

  1. Exit PSS2002.
  2. Do the following:
    • From the Start Menu, select "Start -> Programs -> PSS2R -> Uninstall". Then press the "Start" button in the Uninstall PSS2R window, press the "Yes" button in the Warning window, and wait while the program is unistalled. When the progress bar is at 100%, press the "Quit" button to exit the uninstall program.

K. Troubleshooting and Technical Support

Support on the Web

If you have your computer setup with standard Windows Internet and Email access shortcuts, you can access some helpful Internet sites and/or send Email to Technical Support with your questions, directly from PSS2002. To do so:

  1. Select "Help->About PSS" from the main PSS2002 window.
  2. From the next window, click on any of the "Internet Links" to go straight to those Internet addresses, or click on the "Contact PSS Tech Support" text to send an Email to PSS Technical Support.

In case your PC isn't set up for direct access to the Internet or Email, the relevant Web addresses for information and support are as follows:

Some common problems and solutions:

Here are some common problems you may run into and suggested solutions. If you run into problems, please inform us of them so that we can pass on the solutions to others and/or update PSS2002 to correct the problem.

1. Problem: "I can't see the whole data entry form."

Solution: You may not be using the minimum display resolution of 800x600. See your Windows documentation on how to determine your current settings or how to change them.

2. Problem: "I can't exit the data entry form I tried pressing the "Enter" key and clicking the "Save" button, but it doesn't do anything. The only way I can exit is to press "Cancel, " but then I lose all the information I've entered."

Solution: You have not yet entered some of the "required" information for the proposal. Each time that you try to exit the form, the cursor automatically lands in the first missing required field, allowing you to make an entry. When you have entered information into all the required fields, you will be able to exit and save the record.

3. Problem: "I can't enter information such as the funding amount -- instead, I bounce back to the first data entry tab."

Solution: You may be hitting the "Enter" key instead of the Tab key to move between fields. You bounce back to one of the data entry tabs because a required field has not been completed.

4. Problem: "Before I finish entering all the information for a proposal, I suddenly exit the data entry window and find myself back at the "Browse Proposals" window."

Solution: You may be hitting the "Enter" key instead of the "Tab" key to move between fields or you may be hitting the "Enter" key to move to the next data entry form panel. If you have already entered data in the required fields, pressing the "Enter" key is the same as pressing the "Save" button.

6. Problem: "I can't enter all of the information I need to in a field."

Solution: There are limits on the amount and type of information that can be entered for some fields. If you are exceeding the limit, try to shorten or abbreviate the information so that it fits within the available limits. For data fields with vertical scroll bars on the right side, the fields will hold more information than is displayed on the screen at one time -- the window will scroll as you enter information. However, these fields have limits, too.

7. Problem: "I have much of my proposal information already in another document. Is there a way that I can save re-typing it?"

Solution: You can use the Windows clipboard to cut, copy and paste information between a Windows text document and PSS2002 or within PSS2002 itself. To do this, select the text you wish to copy and choose "Edit->Copy" from the main window menu of your program. Now switch to PSS2002, place your cursor (click) in the field you wish to paste the information, and choose "Edit->Paste" from the main PSS2002 window menu. Caution: Some Windows software embeds non-printing formatting codes that you can't see on the screen, but which might get included in the text you are trying to copy to PSS2002. This may cause PSS2002 to crash. To be safe, copy and paste information only from a simple ASCII text editor such as Notepad (which comes with Windows). If you already have the information in another program, such as a word-processor, you can save the text as an ASCII text file, then open it in Notepad and copy it from there into the appropriate fields in PSS2002.

8. Problem: "I enter the required information, but when I leave the field to go to another, the field reverts to what it was before I entered the information."

Solution: This sometimes happens if you are entering the data in the wrong format, e.g., if you enter 11 digits for the phone number, or you try to enter a 9-digit ZIP Code. Try again, making sure to follow the format of the required data.

9. Problem: "PSS2002 crashes when I try to print out my proposals."

Solution: Some Windows software embeds non-printing formatting codes that you can't see on the screen, but which might get included in the text you are trying to copy to PSS2002. This may cause PSS2002 to crash. To be safe, copy and paste information only from a simple ASCII text editor such as Notepad (which comes with Windows). If you already have the information in another program, such as a word-processor, you can save the text as an ASCII text file, then open it in Notepad and copy it from there into the appropriate fields in PSS2002.

Another cause may be that your data file, APL2002.TPS does not yet contain any proposals yet because you have not yet entered, imported, or added any proposals.

10. Problem: "I prepared proposals on my office computer and my home computer and have two different APL2002.TPS data files. Is there a way to combine these into one file, or do I have to retype the information?"

Solution: You do not have to retype the information, see the section above entitled "Merging Multiple Proposals into a Single Data File" for information on how to combine data files created using PSS2002.

11. Problem: "I prepared proposals in previous years using that year's version of the PSS software. Since much of the information for this year's proposal is similar to the previous submission, is there a way for me to use that information as a starting point for this year's, or do I have to retype the information?"

Solution: You do not have to retype the information, see the section above entitled "Importing Proposals from Previous Proposal Submissions" for information on how to combine data files created using PSS2002.

When All Else Fails

If you've tried everything you can think of and are still having trouble using PSS2002, please contact Tony Kizlauskas by phone at (312) 353 - 8773, or by E-mail at "glnpo.funding@epa.gov".
