You will first need to install JRE, by following the "Requirements" link at the bottom of the Sesame web page. (The link to the Java installation page is: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp.)

"Password" can be any length. When you are done entering a "Username" and "Password" and (at least) the required fields in the registration form, click on "Register".
In the future, when you want enter the Jar module, you need only click on the "Login" and then enter your "Username" and " Password". Email sesame@nmrfam.wisc.edu to have either of these reset if you forget them.

You can return to any Target Request record which you've started entering previously, and make additions or changes to it. Find the record by choosing "Search > Target Requests" and then searching using one of the available options. However, once you choose "Submit Request" you will not be able to alter your entry.

If you have any questions about entering your request, or want to withdraw a request which you've submitted already, you will need to send an email to: cesgoutsiderequest@biochem.wisc.edu. The record will remain, but "Request Status" will change from "Submitted" to "New" if you withdraw your request.
