Tutorial TopicsThis first set of topics explains general concepts to help you
understand how WML works. If you understand these general concepts, learning
the rest will probably be much easier. After the tutorial section there are
sections for each menu item, including help for each item on each screen.

SupportThese topics tell you how to get help in printed and electronic
form.~~|Suggestion|~~If you are fairly new to computers reading the
first (overview) sections of the manual can be a great help. If you are not
yet a registered user with a printed manual, you can print out your own
manual (see the tutorial topic |How to print the documentation|).

How to print the documentationThese are the documentation files which are
provided on-disk with WML:~~|| READ.ME ÄÄ Things to know before using WML plus
latest features~|| WML.TXT ÄÄ ASCII text file of the shareware manual (which
differs from the more in-depth Registered Edition manual)~|| WML.WP ÄÄ
WordPerfect 5 file of the shareware manual~|| ORDER.FRM ÄÄ A blank invoice for
ordering all of my software (an invoice & registration form is included in the
WML.TXT and WML.WP files).~~Go to the DOS prompt and change to your WML
directory (e.g., "cd \wml"). To |display| a file:~~|| Type "|LIST filename|" -
If you have 4DOS or LIST.COM in your computer you will see the file appear
almost instantly~~|| If you see the message "Bad command or file name") then
use "|MORE < filename|"~~To |print| a file enter "|TYPE filename > PRN|"
(without the quotation marks). If underlining is causing an extra line to be
generated, it means your printer is adding a Line Feed (LF) character to the
Carriage Return (CR) character. This used to be common in days of old when data
moved slowly and saving one byte was significant, but these days most software
works better if you turn this feature OFF. Look in your printer's manual for a
feature described as "CR=CR or CR=CR+LF" or something similar.~~If you have
WordPerfect or another word processor which can import WordPerfect files (such
as Word), run it and load the file WML.WP. You will see instructions in a
comment at the top of the file.

How to registerIf you use WML past the 60-day trial period you are required
to pay the registration fee. If you regularly use WML you will |want| to
register for these great benefits:~~|û| You'll get the latest version with
automated installation and PCL (laser) soft fonts on floppy disk~~|û| Support
from the author will be available via telephone, mail, and BBS~~|û| You get a
detailed, 3-ring-bound manual which contains a brief computer course as well as
full instructions for WML~~|Registering Through the Mail|~~|1.| Choose the
|H|elp/|O|rder Form option from WML's menu. If you print the instruction manual
(see "Printing The Documentation" in the Help Index) the order form can be
found on or around page 6.~~|2.| Fill in and send it with payment to Box 132,
Paonia, CO 81428 USA. Your Registered Edition disk with automated installation
will arrive in 1-4 weeks.~~|Credit Card Orders|~~If you prefer to use a credit
card, you can order WML from Public (software) Library with your MC, Visa,
AmEx, or Discover card by calling |800-242-4PsL| (from overseas 713-524-6394)
or by FAX to 713-524-6398 or by CompuServe to 71355,470. |These numbers are for
ordering ONLY.| I CANNOT be reached at those numbers. To contact me for
information about dealer pricing, volume discounts, site licensing, the status
of shipment of the product, the latest version number, or for technical
information, call 970-527-6756 or write me at Box 132, Paonia, CO 81428 USA.
Because you have tried the product before purchasing please understand that
product returns are not allowed.~~When ordering from PsL ask for |product no.
10800|.~~Once you register you can get |updates for free| from a local BBS or
receive low-cost updates on disk through the mail.~~|Update Subscription|~~You
can subscribe to receive updates automatically through the mail. As important
new versions become available (every 1-4 months), I will mail you a disk so you
will always have the latest version. In return you send me $4 plus shipping
within 30 days or return the disk to cancel the subscription.

How to obtain updatesIf a message appears on your screen informing you that
the software is out-dated, it is an indication that the latest version of WML
has vastly improved ÄÄ it probably has many more features and enhancements. You
can also use the command DIR WML.EXE to look at the date of the WML programme;
if it is over a year old you would probably be amazed at the improvements you
could be using.~~I want you to evaluate and use the latest and best version, so
here is how you can obtain an update:~~ If you have a modem, look around page
5 of the documentation (WML.TXT or WML.WP) for the list of distribution
bulletin board systems. You can call any of these systems and get the latest
version for free (except for long distance charges, of course).~~ Send $4 for
an Organic Software Sampler disk plus $2 shipping within the U.S. or Canada, or
$4 shipping to other countries. Send U.S. funds or equivalent cash in your
local currency. This disk contains the latest versions of all my Shareware. Be
sure to specify the disk size and density you require.~~ Call (800) 242-4PsL
and order the latest version from Public (software) Library. Ask for product
#10800. PsL can also take credit card orders for registrations.

Technical SupportSupport is available for registered users and those
intending to register by the end of the 60-day evaluation period. If you are
having a problem and intend to register once it is resolved, then by all means
please ask for help.~~|| Send (post) a letter to Box 132, Paonia, CO 81428

Using WMLThe topics in this section of the help index are usage tips which
apply to the general use of WML rather than any one function.

How to use the menusWML uses the same type of menu found in Windows, Gem,
QuickBASIC, and other popular software. The menu, which is on the second line
of your screen, is two-dimensional: there are |menu headings| horizontally and
under each of these are the actual |menu items|. There are three ways to choose
a menu item:~~1. Use the right, left, up, and down arrows to highlight the item
you want then press |ÄÙEnter|, or~~2. Press the highlighted letter of the menu
item, or~~3. Use a mouse to highlight a choice; select it by clicking the left
button.~~For example, you can press |F| then |x| to exit WML, or highlight
|File| then press the down arrow and highlight |Exit| then press
|ÄÙEnter|.~~|NOTES|~~To pull-down (|open|) a menu just highlight it then press
|ÄÙEnter| or the |down-arrow| key.~~To |close| a menu press the |Esc| key. It
is not necessary to close a menu. You can use the right/left arrows with the
menus opened to browse all of the options. Usually the only reason to close a
menu is so you can use the letters instead of arrows (e.g., if you had the File
menu open and wanted to use the Help Index you could press Esc to close the
File menu then press |H|-|I|).

How to use the file windowFileBoxThe file selection window opens whenever
you choose an option which requires you to specify a disk file, such as the
|F|ile, |O|pen command.~~The file selection window has two windows within it:
One which shows the files of a given type (extension) in a given directory on
the left, and the other which shows the directory tree of the disk drive in
use. To the right of these windows are the command buttons, which may be
accessed with a keyboard or a mouse.~~|Keyboard Commands|~~Use the |TAB| key to
move between windows and buttons. Use the up || and down || arrow keys to
highlight a choice and press the |ÄÙENTER| key to select it.~~|Using a
Mouse|~~There are five "active" areas (as opposed to areas which can neither be
accessed nor changed) and three or six buttons on the File Window. The boxes
are:~|| the file name entry bar~|| the file name menu~|| the directory
tree/menu~|| the disk drive menu~|| the description entry bar~~Position the
mouse cursor on the bar you want to modify or the file or directory name you
wish to access and press the left button.~|û| To change directories press the
left button |twice|~|û| For all other boxes and buttons press the left button
|once|~~|Buttons|~~Here is a list of the buttons found on the right side of the
file window. Sometimes you will not see some of the buttons displayed. For
example, if there isn't a help window defined for the operation, the Help
button will not show.~~|Ok| signals that you are satisfied with your selection.
The file name highlighted in a rectangle near the top left of the window will
be operated upon.~~|Cancel| signals WML to cancel the operation it was
performing and return to the menu.~~|Help| provides this help window.~~|Mk Dir|
stands for "Make Directory", and it can be used to create new directories from
within WML. For example, you may wish to create a new set of files and place
them in a separate directory; rather than existing WML in order to create the
directory, just press the |Mk Dir| button.~~|Delete| signals WML to delete the
file highlighted in the rectangle at the top left of the window along with its
indices. WML will confirm the operation before it actually erases the
files.~~|Rename| is used to change the disk name of a file and its indices. For
example, perhaps you called your first mailing list file "MYLIST" and then
decided that you wanted a more descriptive name, such as "BUSINESS." Click on
the |Rename| button and WML will ask for the new name to give the file and its
indices.~~|Changing a file's description|~~To change the description of a file
just choose the |F|ile/|O|pen menu option, highlight the desired file, move to
the description box (using the TAB key) and change the description.

How to use the Groups pop-up windowGroup_pickWML has a Group Selection
Window which pops open when you press the F3 key while on the Names Data Entry
screen, when you query by group (from the Print-Select-Query sub-menu), or when
using the group functions on the Actions menu. The Group Selection Window lets
you choose up to 20 groups.~~|| Use the arrow () and PgUp/PgDn keys to
highlight a desired group~|| Press the SpaceBar to toggle the group on and
off. If an arrow appears to the left of a group it means that that group is
included.~|| Once you have flagged all the desired groups press F7.~|| To
cancel your group selections press the Esc key. On the Names screen, pressing
the Esc key will keep the group definition the same as it was before you
pressed the F3 key.

How to use a mouseYou may use a mouse (or trackball or touch pad) in lieu of
keyboard commands if you prefer. The basic procedure is the same as for any
software package: position the cursor and click the left button.~~û WML only
uses the left button~û For menu items and highlighted "buttons" you need only
click once~û If an item may have more than one operation performed on it then a
single click of the mouse button will highlight the item and a second click of
the button will perform the default operation. For example, on the Preferences
screens clicking once on an item will highlight it, at which point you may get
help about the item or view a list of options. If you click the mouse button a
second time the list of options appears on the screen since this is the default
operation (i.e., it is the most likely thing you will want to do).

Why are some menu choices unavailable?Menu choices are sometimes "grayed-out"
(displayed in low-intensity gray) to indicate that they are not available. When
this is the case, it means that certain conditions are not being met to allow
the use of the function. For example, if you have not opened a file, the Print,
Import, and Export options will be unavailable since they operate on the data
contained within a file.~~The most common reasons for items being unavailable
are:~~|| No file open ÄÄ if a file is open, its name is displayed after the
|What Mailing List?| title at the top of the screen. Until you create (with the
|F|ile/|N|ew command) or open a file (with |F|ile\|O|pen), you will not be
able to access the DataEntry/Names screen.~~|| No items selected ÄÄ in order
to print labels, envelopes, etc. you must first select the items which you want
to print. If you have opened a file, look at the status line at the bottom of
the screen to see how many records are Selected.~~|| Printer or fonts not
defined ÄÄ you must tell WML which printer you are using and which of the
printer's fonts to use when printing before you can print anything. See the
Preferences/Printers screen to define this information.

Sequence of Printing & ViewingTo control the order in which entries are
printed or viewed use the Index menu. You will see a || mark next to the index
which is currently in use. For more details see the |Index/Filter| section.

POSTNET Bar CodesPOSTNET bar codes are printed automatically at the bottom of
every envelope which has a U.S. zip code; you may also choose to print them on
laser labels.~~Watch laser labels to be sure the bar codes are printed
completely. If you set the left margin too high (even a 0.2-inch margin may be
too much), a 9-digit bar code may get chopped-off on the right side. All bar
codes end in a tall line. Measure with a ruler: a 9-digit bar code is 6cm
wide.~~|USPS Guidelines|~~The USPS' guideline for bar code positioning is ¬"
from the bottom and 3«" to 4«" from the right edge of the envelope. WML
automatically allows for ¬" at the bottom and 3-7/8" from the right
edge.~~|What If Bar Codes Don't Print?|~~If bar codes are not printing or are
chopped off, it is probably due to the print going past your printer's built-in
margin. With envelopes, if the bottom is being cut, set the Bottom Offset (on
the Preferences/Envelope Size screen) to a positive number (e.g., |0.1| will
move the bar code up by 0.1 inches). With labels, if the bar code is being
chopped on the right side, reduce the left margin setting on the
Preferences/Laser Labels Set-up screen.

Status LinesWML has two status lines, at the top & bottom of the screen. At
the top is the title of the programme and the WML file you have open (if any).
At the bottom of the screen is a bar which looks like
this:~~|Total³Selected³Bad/Omit³Pack³Index³01-01-1980|~~From left to right the
items are:~|| Total records in the open file~|| Total records selected for
printing~|| Total records bad or excluded from mailings~|| The word |Pack| if
there are entries to be erased~|| Index in use (name, company, address, or
zip)~|| To-day's date (so far as the computer knows). If you have a filter
chosen, this will be replaced with "|Filter|" followed by a word indicating the
chosen filter or a sequence of letters indicating multiple filters. If the
filter message is |bright| the selection is unchanged, otherwise changes have
occured. For example, you have set the filter to Selected Only then cleared the
selection status of a record. The filter message would change to dim since the
filter is no longer accurate.

What does 'Selected' mean?Your mailing list has entries in it, and each entry
has a |Selected for printing| toggle switch, which you can see on the right
side of the Data Entry/Names screen. This toggle is either ON or OFF. A
check-mark in the box |[û]| means that the entry is Selected; otherwise |[ ]|
it is not.~~The general idea here is that you |select| the records that you
want to do something with (like print them). This could also be called
"marking" or "flagging" entries. Most often the selected records will be
printed on envelopes or labels, but you can also perform other actions on them.
~~|EXAMPLE|~~Let's say you want to move records from one file to another. You
can do it by Selecting them then importing or exporting (import & export both
allow you to operate on all entries or just the Selected entries).~~|How To
Select Entries|~~There are two ways you can select entries:~~|1|. One-by-one by
accessing an entry on the Names Data Entry screen, then pressing |®Alt¯|-|S| to
toggle the Selected switch ON and OFF, or~~|2|. Using the
File/Print-Select-Query option, which gives you complete flexibility to select
the whole list, individual entries, or entries which match certain criteria.

Tracking the sources of entriesFor various types of marketing you may wish to
identify the source from which a contact was obtained in order to establish an
accuracy rate for the source or some other data. Although WML does not provide
a separate field for this, it |does| give you an easy way to keep track of
sources using the Groups feature.~~Create a group description for each source
(using the |D|ataEntry/|G|roups option on the main menu). WML lets you create
up to 256 groups, and each entry may belong to as many as |20| groups.~~After
you have defined the groups just press the |F3| key while on the
|D|ataEntry/|N|ames screen. For more information about groups see the Help
entry for |Data Entry - Groups|.

Ending WML (return to DOS)When you are finished using WML and want to end the
programme just select the E|x|it option under the |F|ile menu. If all menus are
closed, just press |FX|, or you can highlight the File menu then use the down
arrow to highlight Exit then press ÄÙEnter.~~Using a mouse point to the File
menu, click with the left button, point to Exit, and click the left
button.~~|Quick Exit|~~You can quickly end WML from any screen by pressing the
|F10| key.

HardwareThese topics discuss particular hardware situations, problems, etc.

Hardware RequirementsThe minimum equipment required to operate WML is as
follows:~~|| Any 8088 or 80x86 ("IBM-compatible") computer. An 80286 or faster
is recommended~|| Any kind of monochrome or colour monitor.~|| A 720k (or
larger) floppy disk drive or a hard disk drive. A hard disk is recommended
along with a hardware or software read cache (such as SmartDrv).~|| At least
400kb of free RAM (use CHKDSK or MEM commands to see your available RAM). Having
500kb of free EMS and/or XMS memory in your computer will speed the operation
of WML, but is not necessary.~~|Disk Requirements|~~You will need 500kb to
1100kb of disk space for WML's files, depending on which optional files you
decide to keep on your disk, plus space for the files you will create.  You may
keep the data files and programme files in different directories or on
different disks, so floppy disk use is possible (although it will be very slow
compared to a hard disk). See below for a table of floppy disk storage
estimates.

Software Requirements|Operating Systems|~~WML has been tested and found to
work properly with the following |D|isk |O|perating |S|ystems (DOS) and command
interpreters:~~ PC-DOS 3.33 and 6.1~ MS-DOS 5.0, 6.2, and 6.22~ 4DOS 4.0,
5.0, and 5.5~ DR-DOS 6 and Novell DOS 7~ OS/2 2.1 and 3.0 (Warp)~~WML should
operate properly under version 3.1 or later of PC-DOS or MS-DOS. DOS versions
prior to 3.1 do not provide file locking (required for network use), but as
long as WML isn't used by more than one person at once I think you could use
DOS 2.x if you wanted.  However, WML has only been tested with the versions
listed above, so I cannot guarantee the performance with other DOSs. If you are
using a DOS or DOS version other than one of those listed above I highly
recommend upgrading to one of the DOS versions listed above.

Laser Printer FontsFonts are different styles of type your printer can
produce (e.g., Helvetica and Roman are two common fonts). Your PCL printer has
one or more of the following types of fonts:~~|| Resident fonts ÄÄ these are
permanently stored in the printer's memory to be used at any time.~||
Cartridge fonts ÄÄ these fonts are stored in electronic memory in the form of a
plug-in cartridge. As long as the cartridge is plugged into the printer, the
fonts are available for use.~|| Soft fonts ÄÄ these are stored on disk and
downloaded (sent) to the printer as needed.~~|NOTES|~~Envelopes normally use
|landscape| fonts (soft fonts ending in .SFL), labels use |portrait| fonts
(soft fonts ending in .SFP). Some printers, such as the original HP DeskJet,
print envelopes in portrait orientation.~~When you view the list of fonts for a
given function (e.g., printing labels) you will only see those fonts which are
available in the correct orientation. For example, if your printer has Courier
10 in portrait but not landscape, you will not see Courier 10 in the list of
fonts for envelopes unless envelopes print in portrait orientation on your
printer.~~Soft fonts |must| end in SFL (landscape) or SFP (portrait). If you
have PCL soft fonts with different extensions (such as USP), just rename them
to SFP or SFL as appropriate. SFP and SFL are the most common extensions,
meaning |S|oft |F|ont |P|ortrait and |S|oft |F|ont |L|andscape.

Using WML on a laptop computerLaptop or other portable computers which use an
LCD or gas plasma display screen are similar to computers which have VGA
monochrome displays ÄÄ WML knows you have a VGA (or EGA or CGA) display
|adapter|, but it doesn't know if you have a colour |monitor|. If you have a
one-colour monitor (like LCD), some things may be difficult or impossible to
read on the screen.~~To remedy this problem, use the |/M| (Monochrome) switch
when you start WML ÄÄ enter |WML /M| at the DOS prompt. If you are "launching"
WML from within Windows, highlight your WML icon then press Alt-Enter (or
access the File/Properties menu item with your mouse) and add |/M| at the end
of the command line.

FileIn general, using the File menu is like going to your paper filing
cabinet. There are options to work with the files stored on your disk.~~Use the
up and down-arrow keys to highlight the item you want then press |Í¾Enter| or
press the highlighted letter for the item.~~Your mailing lists will be stored
in one or more files. You must specify a file to use before you can enter any
information. Think of it this way: you have to go get a file out of your filing
cabinet before you can look at what's there or add anything to it, and if you
don't have any files you have to set one up.

OpenOpens an existing file.~~After you choose this option you will be shown a
menu of files from which to choose. Highlight your choice and press
ÄÙEnter.~~You must have a file open before you can work with entries. If you
have not yet created any files then use the |New| option to create and open
your first file. ~~When you open a file it stays open until you close it (see
File/Close), create a new file (see File/New), open another file, or exit WML.

NewFile_NewCreates a new mailing list file (like labelling a new paper file
folder). When you choose this option a window "pops" open where you can
enter:~~|| A name for the file, and~|| A description of it~~The |file name|
is the DOS name on the disk. It can be 1-8 characters long using letters and/or
numbers.~~The |file description| is up to 40 characters of any type which
describe the file. The description appears next to each file in the File/Open
window.~~|NOTES|~~File names must be unique. You can't make two files with the
same name (the computer would never know which one you wanted). File
descriptions can be identical to others or may be left completely blank if you
prefer.

File nameFileNameA file name consists of one to eight characters, including
numbers and/or letters only (no special characters such as a period, comma,
etc.). WML will force the name to be all upper-case letters. If you enter the
name of a file which is already on disk or enter a name which is unacceptable
for some other reason, a window will pop open with a message explaining the
problem.

File descriptionFileDescIn addition to the file's name on disk you may also
enter a long description of the file, which may contain up to 45 upper-case and
lower-case letters, numbers, and punctuation and other special characters.~~The
long description is stored in a separate file which is compatible with the 4DOS
command interpreter. If you are using 4DOS then these descriptions will appear
when you view a directory of the files from the DOS prompt (using the DIR
command). You may also edit these descriptions using the 4DOS DESCRIBE command;
any changes you make from 4DOS will appear in the WML file list.

CloseFile_CloseCloses the file currently in use. This is useful if you want
to erase the file which is currently open or if you will be leaving the
computer unattended for a long while you can use Close to save any information
which may be sitting in memory.~~|NOTES|~~File headers are written only when
files are closed. If your computer loses power while a file is open, it would
be something like dropping a bunch of papers on the floor: the information is
all there, just a little out of order, so just use the Re-index option to sort
things out again.

Back-up & Restore filesUse to back-up & restore your data files to/from
another disk.

Back-upMakes a back-up copy of your data files. You must have a formatted
floppy disk ready. You can use the same back-up disk over and over again (the
new copy will over-write the old one), but it may be a good idea to alternate
at least three back-up copies.~~|NOTES|~~Use a rotating back-up scheme with at
least three sets of disks or tapes.~~When the work you've done since your last
back-up becomes too much to lose, it's time to make another back-up.~~Using
compression software requires more memory. The back-up function will only let
you choose compression software if you have enough free memory.~~|| ARJ 2.41
needs at least |300k| free~~|| LHARC 2.13 needs at least |189k| free~~||
PKZip 2.04g needs at least |157k| free

RestoreRestores data files from a back-up copy. This is useful if your data
files become damaged or are accidentally erased.~~|CAUTION|~~Restoring data
files |erases| any data files of the same name which exist. If you need to
restore a single file, do so manually from the DOS prompt.

Format FloppiesWML first tries to find WFF.EXE in your DOS search path. If
found, What Floppy Format? is run; otherwise, you will be asked to specify a
drive and the DOS FORMAT command will be used.~~|CAUTION|~~Formatting
completely erases any information which may be on a disk.~~|NOTES|~~Your DOS
|path| must point to |format.com| (which is probably in your DOS directory). If
it does not you will see 'Bad command or file name' flash on your screen and
disks will not be formatted.~~No parameters are passed to FORMAT -- your
drive's highest density will be used.

Re-indexRebuilds index files and counts the flagged entries.~~If a power
outage or other problem causes some of your entries to mysteriously disappear
or the number of Selected, Bad, Omitted, or Deleted entries are wrong, use this
option to refresh the index & flag counts.

PackThe Pack option removes records from the file which have been marked for
deletion.~~Until a file is packed, "deleted" entries remain on file (which
allows you to change your mind about deleting them, if necessary).

ImportAllows files from other software to be read into a WML mailing list.
Imported information is added to the open mail file.

Including imported entries in groupsIn_GroupsIt is quite easy to include
imported entries in certain groups using the Query functions.~~|Example #1|~~If
you want to place |all| imported records into the same group(s) and there is no
way to distinguish the new records from ones which are already in the open
file:~~1. Create a temporary file (call it "TEMP" or something like that) using
the |F|ile/|N|ew function~~2. Import the file~~3. Choose |F|ile,
|P|rint/Select/Query~~4. Choose Al|l|, |S|elect~~5. Choose |A|ctions, |R|eset
selected to group(s)~~6. Choose the desired group(s) and press |F7|~~7. Open
the file into which you wish to import the entires~~8. Choose |F|ile, |I|mport,
WML 2.x file, and choose the temporary file you just created.~~9. Choose
|F|ile, |E|rase and choose the temporary file you created in step #1~~|Example
#2|~~If you want to place |some| of the imported records into the same group(s)
and/or there is some distinguishing data based upon which WML can identify the
desired entries, then do this:~~1. Open the file into which you wish to import
the entries (|not| a temporary file)~~2. Import the file~~3. Choose |F|ile,
|P|rint/Select/Query~~4. Choose Al|l|, |C|lear so that no entries are
selected~~5. Now choose whichever option will distinguish the entries you want
to place together in a group. For example, some entries might have the word
"Staff" in the comments, in which case you could use the P|h|rase option to
select these entries.~~6. Chooase |A|ctions, |R|eset selected to group(s)~~7.
Choose the desired group(s) and press the |F7| key~~8. Repeat steps 4 through 7
as often as necessary.

ASCII Files, comma delimitedIn_ASCMost software packages can import and
export ASCII (text) files, so you might say it's the most "universal" file
format. An ASCII file contains only the standard letters, numbers, and symbols
found on the keyboard (in other words, no graphic or control characters).
Common examples of ASCII files are the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files found
on most PCs.~~WML requires that the format of the ASCII file be:~|| One record
per line~|| Each field separated by a comma~~Fields may or may not have
quotation marks (") surrounding them.  Quotation marks are only needed if
commas are contained in fields.~~Once you choose this option you will be asked
for a file specification which may include a drive and path. You may use
wildcards (e.g., D:\WML\*.TXT) or you may specify the file (e.g., MYFILE.TXT or
D:\ASCII\DATA\MYFILE.TXT).~~Next you will see two windows:~ The left window
shows the import fields which will be placed in the highlighted WML field.~
The right window shows WML fields followed by their size in characters.~~Note
that the First Name and Surname fields |combined| are 30 characters in length.
Either one may use some or all of this space.~~|MAPPING THE FIELDS|~~1. Use the
up and down arrows to highlight a WML field in the right-hand window~~2. Press
|F3| and a menu showing the first record of the input file, split into one
field per line, will pop up~~3. Highlight each field you want included in the
WML field and press the |®SpaceBar¯|~~4. Press |ÄÙEnter| or click on "Ok" when
done and you will see the fields you defined in the left-hand window.~~||
Press the |F9| key to begin importing the file using the field assignments you
specified.~~|SAVING YOUR DEFINITIONS|~~You can save definitions to disk and
later restore them. Press |F7| to save a definition to disk and |F5| to restore
a saved definition.

ASCII Files, fixed field lengthIn_ASCFThis is similar to the comma-delimited
ASCII format except that each field begins and ends in certain columns and does
not have any separator character between fields. Fields may have quotation
marks surrounding them but it is not required.~~Once you choose this option you
will be asked for a file specification which may include a drive and path. You
may use wildcards (e.g., D:\WML\*.TXT) or you may specify the file (e.g.,
MYFILE.TXT or D:\ASCII\DATA\MYFILE.TXT).~~Next is a screen where you may
indicate where each field ends ÄÄ WML assumes the first field begins in column
one and that each subsequent field begins one character after the end of the
previous field. While looking at the display of the first record on the screen,
enter the ending column number for each field. You may press the up arrow if
you make a mistake and need to back up one field.~~Once you enter the
right-most column number or press F5 or F9 you will see two windows:~ The left
window shows the import fields which will be placed in the highlighted WML
field.~ The right window shows WML fields followed by their size in
characters.~~|NOTES|~~The First Name and Surname fields |combined| are 30
characters in length. Either one may use some or all of this space.~~If the
imported file has longer field lengths than WML the imported data will be
truncated (cut off) to match the WML field size.~~|MAPPING THE FIELDS|~~1. Use
the up and down arrows to highlight a WML field in the right-hand window~~2.
Press |F3| and a menu showing the first record of the input file, split into
one field per line, will pop up~~3. Highlight each field you want included in
the WML field and press the |®SpaceBar¯|~~4. Press |ÄÙEnter| or click on "Ok"
when done and you will see the fields you defined in the left-hand window.~~||
Press the |F9| key to begin importing the file using the field assignments you
specified.~~|SAVING YOUR DEFINITIONS|~~You can save definitions to disk and
later restore them. Press |F7| to save a definition to disk and |F5| to restore
a saved definition.

dBase FilesIn_DBFYou can import records from any dBase-compatible DBF files.
This includes files made in dBase, FoxBase, dB XL, dBFast, QuickSilver,
Clipper, or any other dBase clone plus any application software which uses the
DBF file format, such as DDLABEL.~~Once you choose this option you will be
asked for a file specification which may include a drive and path. You may use
wildcards (e.g., D:\DBASE\*.DBF) or you may specify the file (e.g., MYFILE.DBF
or D:\DBASE\DATA\MYFILE.DBF).~~Next you will see two windows:~ The left
window shows the import fields which will be placed in the highlighted WML
field.~ The right window shows WML fields followed by their size in
characters.~~|NOTES|~~The First Name and Surname fields |combined| are 30
characters in length. Either one may use some or all of this space.~~If the
imported file has longer field lengths than WML the imported data will be
truncated (cut off) to match the WML field size.~~|MAPPING THE FIELDS|~~1. Use
the up and down arrows to highlight a WML field~~2. Press |F3| and a menu of
the DBF field names will pop up~~3. Highlight each field you want included in
the WML field and press the |®SpaceBar¯|~~4. Press |ÄÙEnter| or click on "Ok"
when done and you will see the fields you defined in the left-hand window.~~||
Press the |F9| key to begin importing the DBF file using the field assignments
you specified.~~|SAVING YOUR DEFINITIONS|~~You can save definitions to disk and
later restore them. Press |F7| to save a definition to disk and |F5| to restore
a saved definition.~~|NOTES|~~WML is included with DBF definitions for
competing mailing list software, such as DDLABEL. You can get a free definition
for competing software by mailing me a sample file on a disk.

WML 2.x FilesYou can import records from other WML files, in effect
consolidating two files into one.~~Once you select File/Import and choose this
option, you will be asked for a file specification. You may enter a complete
file name (such as |MYFILE.WML|) |or| you may enter a file mask (such as
|*.WML|). If you enter a mask, a window of available files will open from
which you may choose one file.~~After you have specified the file you wish to
import, WML will ask if you want to import all of the records from the file or
only those records which are Selected within that file. By importing only the
Selected records, you have total control over which records are imported.

WordPerfect FilesIn_WP?WordPerfect mail merge files can be imported into a
WML file using this function.~~Once you choose this option you will be asked
for a file specification which may include a drive and path. You may use
wildcards (e.g., D:\WML\*.WP) or you may specify the file (e.g., MYFILE.WP or
D:\ASCII\DATA\MYFILE.WP).~~Next you will see two windows:~ The left window
shows the import fields which will be placed in the highlighted WML field.~
The right window shows WML fields followed by their size in
characters.~~|NOTES|~~The First Name and Surname fields |combined| are 30
characters in length. Either one may use some or all of this space.~~If the
imported file has longer field lengths than WML the imported data will be
truncated (cut off) to match the WML field size.~~|MAPPING THE FIELDS|~~1. Use
the up and down arrows to highlight a WML field in the right-hand window~~2.
Press |F3| and a menu showing the data in the first record of the input file
will pop up. If the file is a WordPerfect 5.1 file with field names, then the
field names will appear in the window.~~3. Highlight each field you want
included in the WML field and press the |®SpaceBar¯|~~4. Press |ÄÙEnter| or
click on "Ok" when done and you will see the fields you defined in the
left-hand window.~~5. Go back to step 1 and repeat the procedure for each WML
field desired. You need not define every WML field, only the ones you wish to
use.~~|| Press the |F9| key to begin importing the file using the field
assignments you specified.~~|SAVING YOUR DEFINITIONS|~~You can save definitions
to disk and later restore them the next time you import a file which is to use
the same definitions. Press |F7| to save a definition to disk and |F5| to
restore a saved definition. If you add or change any of the field definitions
and press F9 without saving, WML will ask if you wish to save the definition.

ExportExportAllows the entries within a WML file to be saved in a different
file format so that it may be accessed by other programmes.~~WML lets you
decide the type of file you wish to create, whether to export all entries in
the open file or just the Selected entries, and which data items you want to
export.

ASCII FileExport_ASCIIAn ASCII text file is usable by most word processors,
text editors (including edlin), etc. If you aren't sure what format another
person will need, use ASCII since it is the most universal.~~ASCII files are
read and written in the following format:~|| One record per line~|| For
comma-delimited files, fields are separated by commas~|| For
fixed-field-length files, each field begins at a specific column

WordPerfectExport_WPAllows What Mailing List? information to be used with
WordPerfect's merge function. An ASCII file will be created which contains the
necessary WordPerfect control codes.~~|NOTES|~~From within WordPerfect press
|®Ctrl¯-®F5¯ T R| (DOS |T|ext File |R|etrieve CR/LF to [HRt]).

Microsoft WordExport_WordCreates a mail merge file of your What Mailing
List? data for use with Microsoft's Word word processor. An ASCII file will be
created which contains the header information necessary for Word.

Ventura Publisher ASCIIExport_VPCreates an ASCII file with one field per
line and a blank line between fields. Each line contains a tag name preceding
the field. For example, an entry might look like this:~~|@NAME = Acme Tools,
Inc.|~|@ADDRESS = 123 Anywhere Street|~|@ADDRESS = Suite 140|~|@CITY =
Sometown|~(etc.)

Print-Select-QuerySelThis brings up a second pull-down menu and is used in
the same way. Records must be selected to be included in any print-out. |Only
selected records will print.| This menu also has an option to perform actions
on the selected records, such as define groups and flag for deletion.

(Select or Clear)Sel_SC|Select| marks each record to be included in any
print-outs. Records which you Select are |added| to those already selected. For
example, you could clear all records, then mark records in your Christmas List
group then mark records in your Friends group.~~|Clear| is the opposite of
'Select.' Clearing a record means that it will no longer be included in any
print-outs (until it is Selected again).

AllSel_AllSelect or Clear all of the entries in the open file except those
which are flagged as having a bad address or to be omitted from mailings.

GroupSel_GroupSelect or Clear entries according to group definitions. The
Group window will open so you can select the group(s) you would like to select.

DateSel_DateSelect or Clear any entries which have never been printed (Times
Mailed is zero) or entries which were mailed on a particular date.

CitySel_CitySelect or clear records based on the City of the addressee.

StateSel_StateSelect or clear records based on the State or Province of the
addressee.

ZipSel_ZipSelect or clear records based on the Zip/Postal code of the
addressee.~~WML lets you enter a range of zip codes and will flag any records
included in that range. For example, if you enter "10000" for the first zip
code and "20000" for the second WML will flag every entry including and between
these two numbers.

PhraseSel_PhraseSelect or clear records based on a phrase in the
comments.~~This option lets you select entries for mailing based on text
contained in any of the three comment lines. You can enter a few letters, a
word, phrase, or anything at all and WML will search for matching
entries.~~|Examples|~~If you enter "E" WML will find every entry that has the
letter "E" somewhere in the comments. If you enter "some" WML will find every
entry which contains "some," "something," "somewhere," or any other occurrence
of the letters "some."

IndividualSelect or Clear records on an individual basis.~~Under this menu
are three options:~~1. Entire list~2. Only selected entries~3. Only deleted
entries.~~| Entire List| will let you choose from all records in the mailing
list.~| Only Selected| will present only those records which are currently
selected.~| Only Deleted| will let you review the records marked for
deletion.~~After you choose one of these options a window will open showing the
records. You can move throught the list using arrow keys, PgUp/PgDn, etc. and
press ÄÙEnter to toggle the records selection on and off.

ActionsThis menu lets you perform actions on the entries which are selected
for printing.~~|Reset selected to group(s)| will change the group setting for
all selected records to the group(s) you choose.~~|Add group(s) to selected|
will add the group(s) you choose to the selected records, without changing the
groups to which the entries already belong.~~|Mark selected for deletion| will
set the Delete flag for the selected entries.~~|Clear Delete flag of selected|
will turn off the Delete flag for the selected entries.~~|Omit selected from
mailings| will turn on the Omit flag for the selected entries. Since Omitted
records can't be selected for printing, this also turns off the Select flag,
resulting in zero entries being selected for printing.~~|Clear all Omit flags|
will clear the Omit flag for |all| entries in the file.~~|Set selected to a
date| let's you change the Times Mailed and Last Mail Date of the selected
entries. This is handy for those times when you print a list but then don't
actually mail to the people until a later date. See also the |Set to date| help
entry.~~|Make selected 'Never mailed'| clears the Times Mailed and Last Mail
Date fields. This is handy if you print a list and update these fields, then
are unable to use the labels and need to print them again.~~|Notes on
Deleting|~~Records marked for deletion are |not| removed from the file until
you use the |F|ile/P|a|ck option.

Set to dateSel_SetDateThis option lets you increment the times mailed and/or
the last mail date for the Selected entries. You might want to do this, for
example, if you printed envelopes or labels and then the mailing got held up;
you could reset the date to the actual mailing date.~~|Increment Times Mailed
by...| can be a positive or negative number, or zero.~~|New Last Mailed Date|
can be set to a date or you may leave it blank (use the space bar or Delete key
to erase the default date). If you leave it blank, the date will not be
changed.~~Press |F9| to begin changing records. Press the |Esc| key to exit
without making any changes. You can also use a mouse to "click" on the Help,
Save, or Cancel options listed near the bottom of the screen.

PrintThis is where you print labels, envelopes, or a group list.

Group ListPrint a list of the groups defined on blank paper.~~The groups you
define are common to all mailing lists.

Phone BookPrint a phone book containing the selected entries. The phone book
can be printed on a laser or dot matrix printer. You will be asked for two font
selections ÄÄ one for titles (the header and footer of each page) and a second
font for the entries.~~Fonts should be no more than 10cpi or 12 points; 12 to
17cpi mono-spaced (fixed) fonts are recommended.~~Use of proportional fonts
will cause the index at the top of each page to "float."

Laser EnvelopesPrints Selected entries on envelopes on your laser or ink jet
PCL printer.~~|NOTES|~Records must be Selected before they can be
printed.~~POSTNET bar codes are automatically printed for U.S.A. addresses.~~If
the bar code or any address information does not print (or is cut off), adjust
the envelope size and/or print margins on the Envelopes Preferences screen.

Laser LabelsThis option prints Selected records on laser (or PCL ink jet)
labels (8«x11-inch sheet of labels). A window will open for you to define the
label sheet dimensions, margins, and the items you want to print on the labels.
This is the same window as accessed with the Preferences/Laser Labels menu
option, and any changes you make in this window will be saved for future
sessions. After pressing F7 on this window you will be asked for the number of
copies of each label to print, followed by the starting label row &
column.~~|NOTES|~~If you are using 3-across labels (the standard type), there
is not enough room to print a bar code for an 11-digit U.S. zip code. Thus,
even if you have the Auto 11-digit Zip option turned ON (on the
Preferences/Other screen), you will only get 5- or 9-digit zip bar codes on the
labels. If you are using 2-across labels then the full 11-digit bar codes will
be printed.~~If the top margin is set to a negative number this will move the
beginning print position upwards on the page. However, if you attempt to set
the starting position higher than your printer's physical top margin the first
lines will overlap each other.

Number of copiesLzCopiesWhen you print labels you may specify the number of
copies to print. The default is 1 of each entry, but you may print up to 9999
copies of each entry.

Starting labelLzLblStartThis setting determines the starting print position
on the label sheet. The first label on the sheet is row 1, column 1. WML will
ask you to enter the horizontal and vertical label numbers. (See |Caution|
below.)~~If you are using a full sheet simply press the F7 key. If you wish to
start at label other than the top-left one, enter the numbers as
desired.~~|Example|:  If you had already used the first two rows of labels and
the first (left-most) label in the third row, the starting position would be
Horizontal (column) 2 and Vertical (row) 3.~~|CAUTION|~~It is possible that an
already-used label sheet may lose labels within your laser printer which could
damage the printer. Many people have no problem re-using label sheets and it is
certainly a good idea to minimize waste. Just the same, be careful: use this
technique |at your own risk| and only if your laser has a relatively straight
paper path to minimize the possibility of labels coming loose inside the
printer. Most printers have a special feed slot or exit slot to make the path
more straight.

Data runs into next labelYou may find that the data for one entry runs into
the next label (to the right). Here are some common reasons for this problem
and their solutions:~~|| The font is too large ÄÄ if you are using a PCL 5
laser printer (such as a LaserJet III or 4) then go to the Preferences/Printers
screen, highlight the option for the Laser Labels font, and press F3; choose
the same font (or a different one) and then set the point size to a smaller
number (try 8 or 9 points)~~|| The font is too wide ÄÄ fonts have different
widths, so even at the same point size two fonts may be dramatically different.
Try using a different font (use the same procedure as above).~~|| Entries are
all-CAPS ÄÄ with proportionally-spaced fonts, capital letters take more space
than lower-case ones. If you already have invested a lot of time in a mailing
list, there is not much you can do except try a smaller point size or different
font. Enter data using both upper- and lower-case letters in the future.

Continuous LabelsPrint selected records on the type of label shown on the
menu. The label types you wish to print upon are chosen on the
Preferences/Labels screen.~~|Í| Records must be selected before they will
print.

ExitEnd WML (which will return you to DOS or your menu). Always exit the
programme before turning your computer's power off.

Data EntryThis menu provides the means for you to enter and change information
in your mailing lists and group list.
 
NamesDE_NamesUse this to add new entries to a mailing list file or to change
existing entries. Each screen contains one entry (like a single Rolodex
card).~~|COMMAND KEYS|~~Notice the special command keys listed near the bottom
of your screen. You can press a command key to perform it's function whenever
it is shown on the screen or you can |click on the command| description with a
mouse.~~|F1| pops open the help window. While on the State/Province field
pressing |F1| will display a list of States & Provinces from which you may
choose and the mailing abbreviation for that state will be inserted into the
record.~~|F2| will display a list of entries on file. You can scroll through
this list and choose an entry.~~|F3| will display the list of Groups you have
defined, showing the ones to which the current entry belongs (if any). You may
then select & clear groups as apply to the entry. Notice that the word |Group|
under the F3 key (near the bottom of the screen) shows up dim (grey) if there
are no groups defined for the displayed entry and |bright| (yellow or bright
white) if groups are defined.~~|Alt|-|P| is used to print the entry shown on
the screen on either an envelope or a label.~ Hold down the |Alt| key then
press |P|.~ If you have two printers defined, WML will ask which one to use.~
Next WML will ask whether to print a label or an envelope~ If printing an
envelope and you have two return addresses defined, WML will ask which return
address to print.~~To change the status of the four toggles near the top-right
of the window ÄÄ |D|elete, |B|ad Address, |O|mit, and |S|elect ÄÄ hold down the
|®Alt¯| key while pressing one of the letters highlighted (e.g., press Alt-D to
change the |D|elete toggle). Alternately you may use a mouse to click on the
toggles.~~|EDITING KEYS|~~WML uses a block or underline cursor to indicate the
data entry position within a field. If a field is empty, the entire field is
highlighted and the cursor is at the left-most position. You may move the
cursor without destroying data so that, for example, you can change "Avenue" to
"Street" without having to re-type the other information in that field.~~Use
the right & left |arrow keys| to move the cursor and leave all information
intact. The |Del| key will erase the character at the cursor postiion. The
|BackSpace| key will erase the character to the left of the cursor.~~The |Ins|
(insert) key switches between "insert" mode (the cursor becomes an underline;
new data will push other information to the right) and "over-write" mode (the
cursor is a large block; new data will erase information under the
cursor).~~|Home| and |End| keys move the cursor to the start & end of the
field. If you hold down the |Ctrl| (control) key and then press either Home or
End, the file position will jump to the top or bottom of the file.~~|PgUp|
(Page Up) jumps to the previous entry and |PgDn| (Page Down) jumps to the next
entry within the opened file. Precisely what the previous & next entries are
depends on the active index.~~To |add new entries| hold down the |Ctrl|
(control) key then press the |PgDn| key. (On the screen the Control key is
represented by a carat |^| symbol.) You may also position the mouse cursor on
the |^PgDn| button near the bottom of the screen and press the left
button.~~|NOTES|~~You don't have to set the Number of Times Mailed or Last Mail
Date fields ÄÄ these are automatically maintained by the computer, but you can
change them if necessary.~~Phone numbers and comments appear only on screen,
|not| on labels or envelopes.~~When you enter a zip or postal code the State pr
Province for that code will be inserted in the State/Province
field.~~|ABBREVIATIONS|~~Abbreviations (also called "macros") may be used in
the Company, Address, and Comments fields. If there is enough room on the line,
any abbreviations found will be expanded to their full text. If there is |not|
enough room on the line abbreviations will remain as you type them.~~For
example, you might have "POB" set as "P.O. Box". But if you type "12837 Rue de
la Wokka Wokka, pob 12" on an address line the "pob" would remain as it is
because there is not enough room to put "P.O. Box" in its place.

Company nameDE_Names_CoIf this entry is for a company, enter the name here.
You can also use this field as an extra address line.~~Abbreviation checking
is active on this field.

AddressDE_Names_AddYou may enter one or two lines for the address of the
person or company. Only address line #1 is used for duplicate checking
(duplicate checking is found on the Preferences menu).

State/ProvinceDE_Names_StateThis field holds the U.S. State two-letter
abbreviation, Canadian Province abbreviation, or other State or Province name
(up to 15 characters in length).~~If you are not sure of the abbreviation for
a State or Province, press the |F1| key and a menu will pop open; highlight a
State or Province and press |ÄÙEnter| and the abbreviation will be inserted
for you.

Zip/Postal CodeDE_Names_ZipEnter the zip code or postal code for the
addressee, if appropriate. When you enter or change data in this field WML
searches its Smart Zip data base. If a matching zip or postal code is found,
the city & state/province is filled in automatically, otherwise, the
information you enter is saved in the Smart Zip data base to be used the next
time you enter the same zip/postal code.~~|NOTES|~~For U.S. zip codes only the
first five digits are associated with a particular city and state.~~WML's
country setting determines whether you can enter numbers only or numbers and
letters in this field.~~When the country setting is "International" then
symbols are accepted as part of the postal code.

Phone numbersDE_Names_PhoneWML has room for you to enter up to three phone
numbers for each entry.~~The first phone number an "Extension" field associated
with it; the other two fields do not. The third phone number's description may
be changed to any five characters you choose.

CommentsDE_Names_CommentsYou may enter up to three lines of comments for
each entry. Each line may contain up to 76 characters.~~Abbreviations are
active on the comments lines.

Country/PR Urban DistDE_Names_CountryThis field has a dual purpose:~~1. It
holds the Country name |only if| the address is outside the U.S.A. or Canada
(WML automatically figures out when to print USA or Canada), or~~2. It may hold
the name of the Puerto Rico Urban District for P.R. addresses.~~The Country
field only appears when the |Country setting| on the Preferences/Other screen
is set to |International| or an entry is accessed which already has information
in the Country field.

TogglesDE_Names_TogglesOn the top right edge of the Names data entry screen
are four toggles: Delete, Bad address, Omit, and Select. These fields are
either "on" (indicated by a check mark within the brackets |[û]|) or "off"
(indicated by empty brackets |[ ]|).~~The |Delete| toggle flags an entry which
is to be deleted the next time the file is packed. Entries remain on file until
the File/Pack option is used so that you can review the entries marked for
deletion before permanently erasing them from disk.~~The |Bad Address| toggle
indicates that the address on file is incorrect. This maintains the entry on
file for the purpose of duplicate checking so that it will not be entered again
with the same bad address.~~The |Omit/Exclude| toggle indicates an entry which
has a valid address but to which you do not wish to mail. Perhaps it is a
customer who has been chronically late in paying or a propspect to whom you no
longer wish to send mailings.~~The |Select| toggle selects a record for
printing. Selected entries may also be modified as a group using the Actions
sub-menu on the Print/Select/Query menu.

Times MailedDE_Names_TimesThis field contains the number of times an entry
has been printed. Normally, WML takes care of incrementing this field whenever
you print labels or envelopes, but you may manually change the value if
necessary.

Last Mail DatesDE_Names_LastWML keeps track of the last three dates on which
a label or envelope was printed for each entry. Normally, WML takes care of
updating these fields whenever you print labels or envelopes, but you may
manually change them if necessary.~~When you use the arrow keys or mouse to
access one of the date fields WML displays the date on file for you to edit,
or, if the date was blank, WML displays to-day's date for you to change if
necessary. When WML fills in a blank field with to-day's date, pressing the Up
Arrow || or Down Arrow || keys will leave the field blank; pressing any other
key will keep to-day's date in the field.

GroupsGroupsGroups are used to identify entries within a file. You may have
groups such as "Customers," "Friends," or "Christmas list." Entries may belong
to none or as many as 20 groups. When it comes time to print certain entries
within a file you can choose the entries by the group to which they
belong.~~Entries may be identified with groups on the |Names| Data Entry screen
or by using the |Actions| sub-menu of the Print-Select-Query menu.~~You can add
or change group descriptions at any time. Entries are identified with a group's
location within the data base, so changing the name makes no difference.~~You
may erase group names, however, when the time comes that a new group is defined
using the same location in the data base, any records which "point" to that
location will belong the the new group. When you look at entries on the Data
Entry/Names screen WML will check to see if they belong to a deleted group and,
if so, remove the invalid definition. Thus, if you access each entry in a file
you can remove any references to a deleted group.

Choosing groupsGroup_pickWML has a Group Selection Window which pops open
when you press the F3 key while on the Names Data Entry screen, when you query
by group (from the Print-Select-Query sub-menu), or when using the group
functions on the Actions menu. The Group Selection Window lets you choose up to
20 groups.~~|| Use the arrow () and PgUp/PgDn keys to highlight a desired
group~|| Press the SpaceBar to toggle the group on and off. If an arrow
appears to the left of a group it means that that group is included.~|| Once
you have flagged all the desired groups press F7.~|| To cancel your group
selections press the Esc key. On the Names screen, pressing the Esc key will
keep the group definition the same as it was before you pressed the F3 key.

AbbreviationsAbbrThis screen lets you define abbreviations which you can use
while entering mailing information. WML's abbreviations are short macros. Up to
5.5 million abbreviations may be entered (provided you have adequate disk
space).~~Abbreviations are used in the Company Name, Address, and Comment
fields on the Names data entry screen.~~|Example|~~If you have a lot of entries
which have the comment, "Credit Rating: xx" you could set an abbreviation of
CRG (or whatever) to expand to "Credit Rating: ". Then you would just type "CRG
B+" and WML would expand it to "Credit Rating: B+".

MessagesMsgsThis screen lets you define one-line messages which can be
printed on envelopes and labels, such as "Address Correction Requested",
"Return Postage Guaranteed", or other instructions to the postal carrier. This
can also be used for messages such as "Floppy disk enclosed" or "The
information you requested". You may define up to 5.5 million messages.~~When
you print envelopes or labels you will be able to specify which (if any)
message to print.

Index/FilterThis menu lets you choose how you would like the mailing list to
be ordered for displaying and printing, and which records to display. There are
four index options, a separator line, and four filter options. The index and
filter settings you choose are shown at the bottom of the screen (on the status
line) and affects all output to screen or printer.~~|INDEX OPTIONS|~~|N|ame
sorts the list alphabetically according to Surname plus First Name plus Company
name~~|C|ompany sorts the list alphabetically by company name plus surname plus
first name~~|A|ddress sorts the list by the first address line plus zip/postal
code plus surname~~|Z|ip sorts according to the Zip/Postal code plus surname
plus first name~~|FILTERS|~~|S|elected displays only the records selected for
printing~~|D|eleted displays only the records marked for deletion~~|V|alid
addresses displays only the records which have valid mailing address
information~~|I|ncluded displays only the records which can be included in
mailings (in other words, the ones which |don't| have the Bad Address or
Exclude From Mailings flags set)~~You can activate more than one filter. The
active filters are conjunctive (logical AND operation). For example, if you
have the Selected and Valid Address filters activated, you will only see those
entries which are Selected for printing |and| have complete mailing addresses.

FiltersThis is a bit like a filter on a camera in that it affects what you
see. You can activate one or more filters simultaneously.~~|S|elected displays
only the records selected for printing~~|D|eleted displays only the records
marked for deletion~~|V|alid addresses displays only the records which have
valid mailing address information~~|I|ncluded displays only the records which
can be included in mailings (in other words, the ones which |don't| have the
Bad Address or Omit From Mailings flags set)~~You can activate more than one
filter. The active filters are conjunctive (logical AND operation). For
example, if you have the Selected and Valid Address filters activated, you will
only see those entries which are Selected for printing |and| have complete
mailing addresses.

PreferencesThis menu determines the overall operation of WML.~~|| Use
|Address| to set one or two return addresses for printing on labels &
envelopes.~|| Use |Continuous labels set-up| to define continuous (dot matrix)
labels if the types you use are not on the list already.~|| Use |Envelope
Size| to define the types of envelopes you will be using.~|| Use |Laser
labels| to define the layout of the label sheets you will use in your laser
printer.~|| The |Other settings| screen has definitions which affect the way
WML functions on your computer, such as error tone, file display, etc.~|| Use
|Printers| to define your laser and/or impact printer(s).

AddressThis screen has room for you to enter up to two return addresses, such
as a Home and Work addresss. You may choose either of these when printing
envelopes and return address labels. For envelopes you may also choose to use
neither address to accommodate envelopes which have a pre-printed return
address.

Data EntryPref_DEThis screen has settings which affect the way the data
entry screens operate. Briefly the settings are:~~1. |Country| determines your
home country, zip code format, etc.~~2. |City & State formatting| determines
how these fields will be input from the keyboard.~~4. |Default 3rd phone description| contains the
most common description for the third phone number field on the Names screen.

CountryPref_CountryPress the |F3| key to set this field ÄÄ a menu of choices
will appear from which you may highlight a choice & press |ÄÙEnter|~~This
defines the countries for which you will be entering addresses. You may change
this setting at any time ÄÄ it will only change the way information is entered
and displayed (nothing permanent).~~|U.S.A. only|~Use this setting if your
mailings will |only| be to U.S. addresses. This setting:~|| Displays date in
mm/dd/yy format~|| Uses 2 capital letters for state~|| Uses (###) ###-####

Home countryPref_HomeIn this field is the name of the country in which you
live. If the country setting is International then WML will ask you to enter
the country name, otherwise WML will fill in this field for you.

City & State formattingPref_CityThis setting determines how the City and
State/Province fields will be formatted on the Data Entry/Names screen.~~|All
upper case| will accept City & State/Province names in upper case letters only.
The U.S. Postal Service prefers these to be in upper case.~~|Capitalize| will
capitalize the first letter of each word in the City & State/Province name
except for U.S. State abbreviations which are always upper-case.~~|Leave as
typed| will leave these fields as you enter them, allowing both upper and lower
case letters, except for U.S. State abbreviations which are always upper-case.

Default 3rd phone descriptionPref_Phone3This setting determines the default
description for the third phone number of each entry. "Default" means that this
is the description which appears on new records, although you can change it if
you wish.~~The default should be set to the description you will most often
use. For example, if you use the first phone number for an office or "work"
number and the third phone number is most commonly a person's home phone number
(if any), you may want to set the default description to be "Home".~~Remember,
this is only the default which will be applied to new records; you can change
the description on each entry as desired.

Envelope SizePref_EnvThis screen let's you define the size of envelope on
which you will be printing.~~|Width & length|: A standard #10 business envelope
is 9« inches wide by 4-1/8 inches long (9.5 by 4.125).~~The |Left/Right Offset|
lets you adjust the position of the return address for best results. A positive
offset will shift the return address to the right and the addressee to the left
- in other words, the left & right margins are moved inward. On a laser
printer, a negative offset will shift the return address text to the left and
the addressee text to the right - in other words, the left & right margins are
moved outward.~~The |Top & Bottom Offsets| let you adjust the vertical print
position. A positive offset will shift text down from the top and up from the
bottom (margins moved inward). On a PCL laser or ink-jet printer, a negative
Top or Bottom Offset will shift text up at the top and down at the bottom
(margins moved outward).~~|Examples|~~If the first line of the return address
doesn't print, set the Top Offset or T/B Offset to a positive number (like
0.2).~~If the bar code is not printing or only partially appears on envelopes,
it is going past the printer's built-in margin. Adjust the bottom margin to a
positive number (like 0.2) to move the bar code upwards.

Laser LabelsPref_DefLLSet the characteristics of your laser labels on this
screen. Enter the number of labels across and the vertical distance between
labels (measure from the top of one to the top of the next). When you are
finished press |F7| to save the data you entered, or press |Esc|ape to cancel
the operation.

Number acrossPref_LLacrossEnter the number of labels which appear
horizontally on your label sheets. The most common values are 2 and 3.

Vertical distancePref_LLvertThis is the distance, in inches, from the top of
a label to the top of the next vertically-adjacent label.

Top & Left marginsPref_LLmgnEnter values for the top and left margins of the
label sheet. Because label sheets vary and different laser and inkjet printers
can have different origins (the place where it starts printing), you will
probably need to experiment to find the right margin for your printer. It is
common to need about a ¬-inch margin for both settings.~~The margin settings
may be positive or negative numbers. To move the printing higher or further to
the left, set the margin to a negative number (like -0.1). If you set the top
margin past where the printer is able to print it will cause the first lines to
overlap.~~|Helpful Hint|~~Try printing on plain paper before you use a sheet of
labels, then hold a label sheet and the piece of paper up to a light source to
see how they line up.

Lines to printPref_LL_LinesThe vertical line spacing is determined by the
number of lines you wish to include on each label. If you use a large font
(such as a 14 point font), an entry with seven lines of data (including the
bar code) may overlap vertically. With smaller fonts this is generally not a
problem.~~Unless you have special label needs, you will normally want all lines
activated for mailing labels.

Label TypesPref_DMLabelYou can set WML to work with whatever type of labels
you use. Once you select this option you will see a menu of label types (some
of which may be "undefined"). Highlight the one you wish to view and/or change,
press ÄÙEnter, and the label definition window will pop open.~~In this window
you set the characteristics for this type of label.~~|Name| ÄÄ Enter a
descriptive name. This is for your reference. ~~|Width| ÄÄ Enter the width of a
single label in inches. If there is more than one label across just measure one
of the labels.~~|Vertical distance| ÄÄ Measure the distance from the top of one
label to the top of the next.~~|Across| ÄÄ Enter the number of labels
horizontally, 1 through 9.~~|Horizontal distance...| ÄÄ Measure the distance,
in inches, from the left edge of one label to the left edge of the next. This
number doesn't matter if you are using one across labels.~~When you are
finished entering or changing data just press the |F7| key to save or the
|Esc|ape key to quit. You can also point & click on the fields and Ok/Cancel
buttons with a mouse.

Label NamePref_DMLNameThis is a name to identify the type of label (e.g.,
"Mailing", "Shipping", etc.) which can be up to 16-characters long.

Label WidthPref_DMLWidthThis is the width, in inches, of the label,
measuring between the left and right edges.

Vertical DistancePref_DMLVertThis is the distance, in inches, from the top
of a label to the top of the next vertically-adjacent label.

Number AcrossPref_DMLAcrossEnter the number (1 through 9) of labels
available horizontally.

Horizontal DistancePref_DMLHorizIf your labels are arranged with more than
one label across you must tell WML what the distance is from the left edge of
one label to the left edge of the next horizontally-adjacent label.

Left MarginPref_DMLLeftThis is the distance, in inches, to offset the
printing from the left margin. Some printers have their paper sensors located a
few inches from the left-most printing edge which may mean you must load your
labels to the right of the left-print-edge. On my NEC P5300 I must load my
1-across labels 1-inch to the right in order to activate the paper sensor, so I
set the left margin for 1.00 inch.

Lines to printPref_DML_LinesIf you choose to print more lines than will fit
on a label with standard vertical spacing WML will adjust your printer's line
spacing to allow for the extra lines. In this situation it is a good idea to
print a test label to check for line overlap.~~You can change the number of
lines printed on this label type on the Preferences/Continuous Labels
screen.~~If dynamic line spacing is not supported by your printer then WML will
assume spacing to be 6 lines per inch and you |must reduce the amount of data
to be printed| to fit on labels. If you do not the information for some entries
may run past the end of a label, causing subsequent labels to be mis-aligned.

General SettingsPref_GenlThese settings affect the way in which WML
operates. Briefly, they are:~~1. |Alert sound| determines the sound used to
call your attention to problems, incorrect responses, etc.~~2. |Auto 11-digit
zip| determines whether WML will calculate the extra two digits for a 9-digit
U.S. zip code (this does not apply to 5-digit zip codes).~~3. |Adhere to USPS
guidelines| determines whether address information will be printed following US
Postal Service guidelines. ~~4. |Incomplete addresses| determines whether
entries with incomplete address information will be printed on labels and
envelopes.~~5. |Import duplicate rule| and |Import technique| determine how
data will be imported from other file types.~~6. |Start on DE Names screen?|
determines whether WML starts at the top menu or in the Data Entry/Names
screen.

Alert SoundPref_ErrSndPress the |F3| key to set this field ÄÄ a menu of
choices will appear from which you may highlight a choice & press
|ÄÙEnter|.~~You can specify whether you want WML to be silent or use a tone to
call your attention to problems (e.g., printer off-line), warnings (e.g., when
data is about to be abandoned), etc.
 
Auto 11-digit ZipPref_AutoZipIf an address has a 9-digit zip, WML can figure
out the extra 2-digits and check-digit.~~Since there may be exceptions to the
rule you may turn this feature off, which will print 9-digit zips as they are
and will only print 11-digit zips if such is on file.

Print incomplete addressesPref_NoAddThis setting helps to avoid mailing to
undeliverable addresses. If this option is set to "Print", then entries with
incomplete address information will be printed anyway. If set to "Don't print",
entries with no address will |not| be printed on labels and envelopes, even if
they are selected to print.~~|NOTES|~~Entries which have city, state/province,
and zip code are considered valid since some destinations do not have street
address information (especially in small towns)~~This setting affects:~|û|
Printing of labels & envelopes~|û| Exporting

Adhere to USPS guidelines?Pref_USPSThis setting determines whether WML will
force compliance with U.S. Postal Service guidelines or will allow a more
traditional printing of address information.~~The USPS uses computers with
optical character recognition (OCR) to scan mail in an attempt to mechanically
sort it (that is, without human intervention). For best accuracy they prefer
that the address information be printed in all UPPER CASE letters without any
punctuation.~~If you set this field to |Enabled| all U.S. addresses will be
printed in UPPER CASE with symbols and punctuation removed.~~When set to
|Disabled| address information will appear as it is entered on the Names Data
Entry screen and with a comma between the City and State names.~~|NOTES|~~This
setting does not affect the printing of Canadian or International addresses.

Import duplicate rulePref_ImportThis setting determines how duplicate
entries will be handled when you are importing a file. In determining if an
imported entry is a duplicate of one already on file, WML checks for an
|identical| name, company name, and/or address, depending on the duplicate
checking options you have active (these are found under the Index
menu).~~|Update duplicates| will update the record on file with the new
information being imported.~~|Add duplicates| will add imported records to the
file without checking for duplicates~~|Ignore duplicates| will |not| add
duplicate entries to the open file.~~|Ask each time| will pop open a window
each time a duplicate entry is encountered, asking you whether to update, add,
or ignore the record.

Import techniquePref_InMethodThis setting determines how entries with
missing name or company name fields will be handled.~~|Standard| technique will
place the fields exactly as you specify on the import definition
screen.~~|Smart| technique will fill in missing fields by guessing at the
appropriate contents. |Smart Name| will operate only on the personal name. For
example, if the file you are importing has a single field for a person's name,
you can define that field to go into either the first name or surname field and
WML will split it into components. |Smart Name  Company| will move a personal
name into the company name field if WML believes it belongs there. |Smart Name
 Company| will move a personal name into the company name field or a company
name into the personal name fields, if it seems like the data belongs
there.~~The "smarter" the setting, the more likely it is that WML will make
some mistakes. However, if the file you are importing is inconsistent or has
only a single field for either a person's name or a company name, WML can save
you effort by correcting some (or all) of the entries for you. It is likely
that the highest two settings will contain inaccuracies (e.g., a company name
may end up split into the first and last name fields), but depending on the
condition of the import file you might have more correcting to do if WML didn't
give you a hand.~~|Note|: The file WML.CO contains company name "indicators"
which are used for the highest two "smart" setings. When WML sees one of these
character strings in a name it "knows" that the name is a company name. You can
edit this ASCII file to contain words which are found in the company names of
the file you are importing. Be sure you |make a copy of your edited file|
because the next time you update WML it will be replaced with the one which is
distributed with the package.

Start on DE Names screen?Pref_StartThe setting of this field determines
whether WML will automatically go to the Data Entry/Names screen when it is
first started.~~When |enabled| and a file was open when WML was last ended, the
file will be opened and WML will go to the Data Entry/Names screen.~~When
|disabled| or no file was open when WML was last ended, WML will wait at the
top menu.

PrintersPref_PtrsDefine the laser and/or dot matrix printers you will use
with WML, including font definitions.~~û Use the up and down arrows to move
between the fields~~û When |F3/List| is displayed near the bottom of your
screen you can press the |F3| key to open a window of choices.~~û For help with
a particular field, position the cursor on the field and press the |F1| key.

Setting Printer ModelPref_PtrSetOn this line you define the printer you will
be using so that WML knows how to control it properly. Many printers, even
different brands, use the same control codes. If your printer is not on the
list look in your manual to find a model it emulates.~|û| Most laser printers
use the PCL language~|û| Most dot matrix printers are Epson or IBM
compatible.~~To set this field:~~|1.| Press the |F3| key or double-click with a
mouse. A window of printer choices will "pop up" on your screen.~~|2.| Use the
up/down arrows or the PgUp/PgDn keys to highlight your choice then press
ÄÙEnter.

Printer PortPref_PtrPortThis is the "channel" WML will use to access each of
your printers ÄÄ LPT1, LPT2, or LPT3. If you have a switch box you can set both
printers to the same port. If you only have one printer it is probably
connected to LPT1.

PCL Soft Font DirectoryPref_SoftDirIf you use a PCL laser printer you can
use soft fonts (fonts stored on disk which are sent to the laser printer as
needed. When you choose the |Select a Soft Font| option when setting a PCL font
you will be given the chance to specify the drive and path on which your font
files reside. Any new information you enter here will be saved as the new
default soft font directory.

Return Address FontPref_RAFontSelect the font you would like to use to print
the return address on envelopes. Since the post office does not scan the return
address information, you may use any type of font in practically any size you
want.~~To set this field:~~|1.| Press the |F3| key or double-click on the field
with a mouse. A window of font choices will "pop up" on your screen.~~|2.| Use
the up/down/PgUp/PgDn keys to highlight your choice then press ÄÙEnter.~~|3.|
If the font is scalable you will be asked to enter the size of print you would
like to use.~~|NOTES|~~|| Envelopes normally use |landscape| fonts (soft fonts
ending in .SFL). Some printers, such as the original HP DeskJet, print
envelopes in portrait orientation.~|| WML will allow you to choose only those
fonts which match your printer's orientation for envelopes. For example, if
your printer has Courier 10 in portrait but not landscape, you will not see
Courier 10 in the list of fonts for envelopes unless envelopes print in
portrait orientation on your printer.~|| Soft fonts |must| end with either SFL
(landscape) or SFP (portrait). If you have PCL soft fonts with different
extensions (such as USP), just rename them to SFP or SFL as appropriate. SFP
and SFL are the most common extensions, meaning |S|oft |F|ont |P|ortrait and
|S|oft |F|ont |L|andscape.

Addressee FontPref_AdFontSelect the font you would like to use to print the
addressee on envelopes.~~To set this field:~~|1.| Press the |F3| key or
double-click with a mouse. A window of font choices will "pop up" on your
screen.~~|2.| Use the up/down/PgUp/PgDn keys to highlight your choice then
press ÄÙEnter.~~|3.| If the font is scalable you will be asked to enter the
size of print you would like to use.~~|NOTES|~~|| The U.S. Postal Service
prefers san-serif (Helvetica, Univers, Swiss, OCR, etc.) fonts in the range of
8-18 points for their automated readers.~|| Envelopes normally use |landscape|
fonts (soft fonts ending in .SFL). Some printers, such as the original HP
DeskJet, print envelopes in portrait orientation. WML will allow you to choose
only those fonts which match your printer's orientation for envelopes. For
example, if your printer has Courier 10 in portrait but not landscape, you will
not see Courier 10 in the list of fonts for envelopes unless envelopes print in
portrait orientation on your printer.~|| Soft fonts |must| end with either SFL
(landscape) or SFP (portrait). If you have PCL soft fonts with different
extensions (such as USP), just rename them to SFP or SFL as appropriate. SFP
and SFL are the most common extensions, meaning |S|oft |F|ont |P|ortrait and
|S|oft |F|ont |L|andscape.

Label & Phone Book FontPref_LLFontSelect the font you would like to use when
printing laser labels (8.5 x 11-inch sheets of labels) and the phone book. The
U.S. Postal Service (USPS) prefers |sans serif| fonts, such as Helvetica,
Helvette, Univers, Swiss, or OCR in a |size of 8 to 18 points|.~~|| 9 or 10
point fonts are best for 3-across labels~|| 10 or 12 point fonts are good for
2-across labels.~|| A 15cpi fixed-pitch (or "mono-spaced") font, such as
Courier, works best for the phone book.~~|NOTES|~~|| Labels use |portrait|
fonts.~|| When you view the list of fonts for labels (on the Printers
Preferences screen) you will only see those fonts which are available in
portrait orientation. For example, if your printer has Line Printer 16.67 in
landscape but not portrait, you will not see it in the list of fonts.~|| Soft
fonts |must| end in |SFP|. If you have portrait PCL soft fonts with different
extensions (such as USP) just rename them to SFP.~~|TIP|~~When setting label
fonts and margins for the first time it will save money (and frustration) if
you print trial sheets of labels on plain paper. Hold the paper with a sheet of
labels up to a light source to see how everything looks and lines up.

Titles FontPref_TtlFontSelect the font you would like to use to print report
titles. This is used for the Group List, Phone Book, and Zip/Postal Code
Distribution List.~~To set this field:~~|1.| Press the |F3| key or double-click
with a mouse. A window of font choices will "pop up" on your screen.~~|2.| Use
the up/down/PgUp/PgDn keys to highlight your choice then press ÄÙEnter.~~|3.|
If the font is scalable you will be asked to enter the size of print you would
like to use.~~|NOTES|~~|| Reports are printed in portrait orientation.~||
When you view the list of fonts for titles (on the Printers Preferences screen)
you will only see those fonts which are available in portrait orientation. For
example, if your printer has Line Printer 16.67 in landscape but not portrait,
you will not see it in the list of fonts.~|| Soft fonts |must| end in |SFP|.
If you have portrait PCL soft fonts with different extensions (such as USP)
just rename them to SFP.

Manual FeedPref_ManFeedThis field specifies whether you will manually feed
envelopes or if you have an envelope tray. If you set this to "Yes" WML will
send a Manual Feed command to the laser printer before printing envelopes. On
some lasers this does nothing, but on most it will cause the printer to wait
for an envelope to be inserted in the manual feed slot. (For many compact laser
printers, the manual feed "slot" is on top of the paper tray.)

Impact Printer FontsPref_DMFontThese fields let you select the fonts to use
in printing envelopes, continuous labels, and reports on your dot matrix
printer.~~The Labels & Phone Book font definition is used for printing both
continuous labels and the main body of the phone book. The Titles font is used
in printing the title line for the Group List, Phone Book, and Zip/Postal Code
Distribution List.~~To set this field:~~|1.| Press the |F3| key or double-click
on the field with a mouse. A window of font choices will "pop up" on your
screen.~~|2.| Use the up/down/PgUp/PgDn keys to highlight your choice then
press ÄÙEnter.~~|3.| If the font is scalable you will be asked to enter the
size of print you would like to use.~~|NOTES|~~|| When setting the font to use
for addressee and labels, keep in mind that the U.S. Postal Service prefers
san-serif (Helvetica, Univers, Swiss, OCR, etc.) fonts in the range of 8-18
points for their automated readers.

Pause for EnvelopesPref_DMPauseIf you use ordinary envelopes set this field
to |N|o. This will cause WML to pause between each envelope so you can load it
properly in your printer.~~If you use continuous envelopes (a box of envelopes
all connected to each other) then set this field to |Y|es so that WML will
print all of them without pausing.~~|NOTES|~~In most cases this field doesn't
matter because the printer will stop printing on its own as each envelope is
completed. However, if your printer:~~a. has no out-of-paper sensor so that it
always prints regardless of whether there's anything to print on, or~~b. will
not print single envelopes because it thinks it's out of paper so that you have
to jam a business card in the back to make it print (thereby defeating the
out-of-paper sensor),~~then this pause will make WML wait for you and help
prevent printing on the platten.

Duplicate CheckingPref_DupCkThe duplicate checking options are listed under
the Preferences menu. A dot || to the left of any of these three options means
that it is active.~~When a dup checking option is active you will be told each
time a duplicate is detected.~~Duplicate checking applies to entering new
records from the keyboard as well as importing from other files~~Address option
checks the file for duplicate Address-line-1 only; line 2 of address is |not|
checked for duplicates.
