Simon's BG Data for Feb 2000 through June 2000 is now available. Each month is on a separate page. The format is fairly basic at present and will be modified to show Insulin doses and any notes about specific BG Readings, Insulin Doses, or other comments as soon as I modify the program I wrote which creates these data display pages.
These data display pages were formatted with a particular size font so that you can more easily see all of the data tables at one time. See the NOTE below for more information.

Please let me know what you think about the format in which this data is displayed by sending Simon or myself E-Mail via this link -> E-Mail Us
Note - I formatted these data pages such that if the default font size in your browser is small enough (for Netscape a setting of 11 for the font size for variable fonts is ideal) , you can scroll to the far right of the page and see the entire data table at one time without having to constantly scroll left and right .
Once you scroll to the right, you can see the entire width of the table on you screen at one time.
This will only be possible if the default font size in your browser is set correctly and your monitor is configured for a resolution of 800 x 600 or greater.
If your monitor is configured for a resolution smaller than 800 x 600, 640 x 480 for example, you will need to use a fairly small setting for the font size, smaller than those I talk about below. Try smaller setting and see what you can get to work for you.
It is beyond the scope of this material to give you instructions on changing the resolution of your monitor, indeed it might not be possible with the hardware and software you have on your computer. For information about changing monitor resolutions, look in the documentation that came with your computer (if any did come with your computer!), check the Windows or other Help files, or contact the supplier of your computer.
Below are the instructions for changing the font size. Directly below are the instructions for Netscape users. If you use MS Internet Explorer, you can click HERE to skip the Netscape instructions.
If you use Netscape, and your default font size for variable fonts is set to size 11, you should be able to see all of the data table width at one time if you scroll all the way to the right.
You can either change the default font size, I explain how to do that below, or you can use the Decrease Font item in the View menu. This will display everything in a smaller font size.
Simply click the View menu and then click the Decrease Font item that will appear in the drop down menu. You can select this menu item multiple times to decrease the font size even more.
This setting will remain in effect until you either click the View menu and then click the Increase item or you shut Netscape down. The original default font size will again be active when you restart Netscape the next time you use.
For the best view of these pages with Netscape, however, you should change the default font size of variable fonts to 11. To do this click the Edit Menu, and then click the Preferences item at the bottom of the Edit menu.
In the left hand column of the Preferences window, click on Fonts. The Font options will then be displayed.
Make a note of the font size shown for Variable Fonts, you might want to change back to that size later. It is possible that the font size will already be set to 11, if it is, simply click the Cancel button to close the Preferences window.
If the font size is not already set to 11, click on the downward pointing arrow to the right of the box showing the current font size. Then click on 11. If the 11 setting does not appear, you will need to scroll up or down in the font size list to find it.
After you select font size 11, click the Ok button at the bottom of the Preferences window.
If you use Ms Internet Explorer, you are a tad handicapped as compared to Netscape users in the ease with which you can change the font size being used for viewing a web page.
Netscape has a a Decrease Font and Increase Font item in it's View menu with which you can quickly, and temporally change the size of the font being used.
I am not aware of a comparable feature in the MS Internet Explorer 4.0 or earlier. If there is one in later releases of MS Internet Explorer try using it to change the font size. If there is such a setting, please e-mail me and tell me the menu in which it exists and I'll update these instructions.
Without a Decrease Font feature like Netscape's, you will have to to change your Internet Options in MS Explorer to use a smaller font size.
Additionally, unlike Netscape, MS Internet Explorer does not allow you to set a specific font size as the default. Apparently Microsoft feels that such options are beyond the scope of mere mortals. They only let you set the font size to Smallest, Small, Medium, Large, and Largest.
You will probably have to set it to Small to be able to see all of a BG data table's width at one time without having to scroll back and forth from the right to the left.
This Small setting on MS Internet Explorer will produce smaller type than would Netscape set to font size 11.
To change the font size setting, click the View menu and then click the Internet Options item at the bottom of the View menu..
Click the General tab on the Internet Options window and then click the Fonts button which will appear at the bottom of the General tab.
Make a note of the current setting for font size in case you want to change it back to the original setting at a later time.
Then click on the downward pointing arrow at the right of the line that says Font Size.
Click on Small in the drop down list which will appear.
Then click OK button on the Fonts window. And then click the OK button on the Internet Options window.
