Loading Project Information
You can retrieve the up-to-date information about your project(s) from the ALMAArchive
via
File
Open Project
from ALMA Archive
in the menu bar. This will start up the Project Finder
dialog box,as displayed in Figure
7.1
, in which you can specify which project shall be retrieved from the ALMA Archive. Clearly, only those projects can be retrieved for which the user indeed has access permissions. After the specifying the search criteria a list of project will be displayed and the user can select. The retrieved project will become available to the OT and you can start working on the Phase 2 specifications of your project.

Apart from retrieving the Phase 1 information from the Archive, Phase 1 and possibly (partially) completed Phase 2 information can also be loaded from a local
.aot
file.To load a local file use the
File
Open Project
From File...
function from the menu bar.
To download the up-to-date project information from the Archive in the OT and for the actual submission of Phase 2 programs to the Archive you will need a network connection; all work on a Phase 2 programme can be done off-line. This is very convenient in case you want to prepare your Phase 2 programme on a laptop while travelling, for instance.
Independently of how you retrieved the project:
make sure that you download up-to-date and correct Phase 1 information before you take your computer off-line and start working on Phase 2
.
