Why do I get the Banner login screen twice?

If you are using Netscape you may encounter a situation where you will be asked to repeat a login procedure. There are no issues concerning security in logging in twice, and the only way to alleviate this problem at this time is to use Internet Explorer when logging into Banner.

I am using Internet Explorer 6 Beta and the Banner login appears blank, what should I do?

You will need to download and install Internet Explorer 5.5.  Internet Explorer 5.5 is the latest supported version of IE on campus.  We do not support beta versions.

Who is Dr. Watson and why am I getting this error?

A system error has occurred. Just cancel out of any dialog boxes that appear; if your session is really frozen and you can't get out of it, close the window using the X in the upper right-hand corner, or call MIS and they will cancel your session for you. 

If you can reproduce the error, please report it to the MIS department.

How can I export my CLASS LIST from Banner into EXCEL?

  1. Login to Banner
  2. Choose Faculty Services
  3. Make a class list selection and choose desired term, submit CRN
  4. Select "class list with e-mail" (this list is tabular and pastes well into Excel)
  5. Dragging with the left mouse button, select only the table of student information beginning with the first letter of the first column's name and ending with the last letter of the last record. Highlighting anything else on the page will result in unwanted items in the spreadsheet.
  6. Right-click on the highlighted area and select "Copy" from the menu.
  7. Open Excel and select "Paste" from the Edit menu.
Note: Pasted information may appear bunched-up or abbreviated until the columns are resized.
