Incompatibility issues with NF-One and software compression utilities (ZIP programs)
It has come to our attention that certain ZIP utilities will cause problems with Visual NF-One. The two known programs are NetZip and ZipMagic.
If you experience problems with files not being found or with not being able to send files to North Farm, please check to see if you have one of these programs installed.
The solution is to uninstall the ZIP utility.

Messages that are intended for the general membership and are not related solely to the person using NF-One will now be printed on the individual invoices. It is our intention to use this as a way to keep everyone up-to-date on important happenings here at North Farm.

Q When I try to connect to North Farm, I get a message that it can’t locate the modem. Why can’t it find the modem?
If you have been on the Internet for any reason, you will need to restart your computer for Visual NF-One to work.
Check to see what com port your modem is set to use. You can do this by clicking on your Windows Start button, Settings and then Control Panel. Double-click on Modems and click on the Diagnostics tab. You should see a list of com ports. Note the one that has your modem listed.
Then, in Visual NF-One, click on Setup and then Computer Configuration. Click on the Communications Setup tab. Make sure the com port shown here matches what you saw in the Modem Diagnostics. If it doesn’t match, change the setting here so that it does. If the settings match, try setting the Communications Port Speed to 19200.
