The sender enters his/her own e-mail address, then the receiver’s e-mail address, and then uses browse and pick to identify the file to send. The file is uploaded to the provider’s server, and an announcement e-mail with the link is automatically sent to the receiver. The file remains on the server for seven days, after which it is deleted.)
The receiver clicks on the link in the announcement e-mail to download the file from the server at any time within the limit. The receiver can forward the announcement e-mail to someone else, who can also download the file.

Main Presentations
In this second part of the event, companies are expected to attend and deliver a Company Presentation of up to a maximum of 5 minutes (It is timed!). Up to 4 achievers from each company may participate in giving the presentation and an additional member would be needed to 'run' the computer (if PowerPoint is to be used). The event starts at 5:20pm and finishes around 8:00pm. There is an interval at 6.40pm. We suggest you bring some bottled water if the day is warm.The computer/projection facilities at the Civic Centre will only accept a usb drive. The software is MS Office 2003. The projection size will be 1024 x 768 pixels. Please note that if you are using MS PowerPoint 2007, this is not completely compatible with earlier versions of the Office suite and it is suggested you save it as the previous version: and of course, check that it works before the day. If you intend to use embedded audio or video in your presentation, then this file also needs to be installed and the PowerPoint amended to direct the link to the file location. There will be an opportunity to rehearse (but only about 5 minutes each company) from about 3:30pm to 4:45pm. If you wish to send a copy of your presentation to secretary@harrowye.org to be trialled/installed prior to the event, then please use http://www.sizablesend.com as detailed above.
Parents of Achievers are warmly welcomed to attend the Presentations.
