Figuring Out What You Have - Printing Your BARS Configuration
Back to BARS101

If you want to organize records for easy reading, download this simple Excel file that has a worksheet for each report.  Also included is a "line number" column so you can perform sorting.  Not rocket science, but Excel is nice for Meridian printouts when you create a separate sort column.

Report

Listed in the same order you would use if you were building BARS from scratch..  You may print the reports in any order as long as you can keep track of what report starts where.
