A "user" is someone who has set up personal records and occupies one of the nine user slots that Diet Power can handle. If nine users have already enrolled, a new user cannot enroll unless the Master User deletes one of them to make room. To see how many users are already enrolled, consult the User List. For instructions on deleting a user, see User, Deleting a.
There are two ways to enroll as a user:
To enroll from the Windows desktop:
1. Double-click Diet Power's household icon:
. Diet Power's logo screen will appear, followed by the
"Who are you?" dialog, which includes the User List. (Exception:
If no other users are enrolled, Diet Power will take you directly to the
Personal Information Form described in steps 2 and 3.)
2. Click the button labeled "I'd like to enroll as a new user or import all of a user's records from an earlier version." Diet Power will open a blank Personal Information Form.
3. Fill out the form (for instructions, see Personal Information Form) and click OK. Diet Power will open a dialog asking for your current weight.
