Accessing and Processing NMR Data Files

Accessing NMR data files:

On a PC:

  1. Click START, choose RUN enter \\STORE\CLASSES and click OK
  2. Enter your username and password.
  3. Scroll down to the folder 20145000431M
  4. The data you need will be in the read-only subfolder. You should copy all needed files to your machine for guaranteed easy access later.
  5. I recommend that you create a shortcut to this folder by right clicking on it and selecting "send to Desktop (create shortcut)". Now you will have easy access to it in the future.
