Adult Performance Outcome System Data Collection and Reporting Methodology

Downloadable copy of the Adult Performance Outcome Data System (APODS)

NOTE:  NO data from ANY previous APODS version are transferable.  The old APODS application must be deleted BEFORE installing the new APODS Version 2.0.  Therefore, export all data from the old APODS and save it to a separate folder or disk before deleting the application.  Once APODS Version 2.0 is installed, these backup files can then be re-imported.

The APODS software program was originally developed in Microsoft Access 97.  Previous versions of APODS were reliant on Access 97 being fully installed on the user’s computer.  APODS Version 2.0 is available in multiple formats based upon whether the user has Access installed on their computer and the specific version of Access being used.  Use the chart below to determine which format of APODS 2.0 is best for your computer.

APODS 2.0 Compatibility

User’s Version of Access	APODS Version 2.0	Description	Name of Setup File
Access 97	APODS 2.0 for Access 97	Installs additional files related to Access 97.	APODS97Setup.exe [10.30MB]
Access 2000	APODS 2.0 for Access 2000	Installs additional files related to Access 2000.	APODS2000Setup.exe [7.46MB]
Access NOT installed	APODS 2.0 Runtime	Installs Access 2000	APODSRuntimeSetup.exe (not available yet)

From the table, you will notice that there are now two formats of APODS 2.0, depending upon the version of MS Access the user currently has installed on their computer:

1.      “APODS97Setup.exe” is specifically designed for use on computers where Access 97 is installed. 

2.      “APODS2000Setup.exe” is specifically designed for use on computers where Access 2000 is installed. 

3.      A third version is currently undergoing testing and will be released in the near future.  “APODS2000Runtime.exe” is specifically designed for use on computers that have neither Access 97 nor Access 2000. 

Make certain that the correct format of APODS 2.0 is installed.  After saving the appropriate APODS.exe file to your local folder, follow the installation instructions outlined in the APODS User’s Manual [ click here ].
