Details
As it was a second saturday,we learnt that the school had a holiday.We were very disappointed to find the school and the computer lab closed.We had come with plans to install win 98 on the machines.

When we asked the resident caretaker Sandeep,he told us about the second saturday thing.We asked him for keys of the lab and he said he did not have them.we were very annoyed and decided to make improvements in the management of this programme.

Fortunately,the principal came to the school after some time and we could manage to get the keys to the lab.

We tried to install a WIN 98 OS on the PCs but failed to do so as the CD that we had was not a bootable CD.

Then we tried to gather some students and were able to get Suman Jain and her brother Dhanpat Jain to the lab.

We taught them some spreadsheet skills and asked Suman to pass on the same to Geeta.

After the activity,we had tea with the shool principal and he asked us to help the school with a software for priniting the monthly fee receipts.

We told him that this could be done in a MS office macro and promised to give that to him soon.We are now working on developing such a macro.
