[All the S2S "implementers" are saying, "Take that PureEdge lover".]

This is all wacky.  Were your page limit things "warnings" or "errors"?  I too think that the computer is mistakenly adding human subjects and vertebrates sections to the total.

Here's another one...a WARNING only, but seemingly inconsistent in its application:
"Street 1 of the Applicant Organization address exceeds the limit of 50 characters. The grant image will display the address as submitted; NIH will store the first 50 characters only. - Warning"
WE PUT THE SAME WORDS (23 characters)  INTO THE STREET 1 FIELD ON EVERY APPLICATION...but the warning only comes up occasionally.

still in love

>My department had two R21 submissions. The first one was well within the page limit and did not have an error.  The second one, however, was exactly 15 pages, but involved human subjects and the separate pdf pages for the human subjects sections appeared to add enough 'white space' to throw it over the page limit. We were able to correct this issue as the pi in question usually uses a 12 point font, and reducing one of the research plan sections to 11 point arial, reduced the page length enough that it cleared without a problem on the corrected submission.

>>We have received the following warning on some, but not all, of our R21 submissions:

>>We were submitting to Grants.gov and the AOR had signed in and pushed all the right buttons but nothing was happening...except sands in the hourglass.  Reason?  AOR had installed PureEdge but NOT the PureEdge update.  After we put that in, all went thru fine.  (Now we know what the update does)
