  FILE DIALOG HELP

  The file dialog  box is used to choose an  output disk file for the
  reports you will run with USDL.  Each time you strike <enter> in an
  interactive module, or  request to view a text  reference file, all
  of the information  will also be saved to the  output file you have
  chosen. All of the disk writes are appending, so the file will grow
  if you run lots of reports...


  [ ] Output to File: (checkbox)
  This is  the toggle to turn  file output ON or  OFF. When you first
  invoke the file dialog box, your  cursor will be in this check box.
  You  can activate  the toggle  by pressing  your space  bar, or  by
  clicking in the box with your mouse.

  Once you  toggle the file output  to ON, the remainder  of the file
  output dialog controls will appear:

  [X] Output to File: (input box)
  The easiest way  to set an output file  name is to type a  path and
  file  name into  the box  to  the  right of  the "Output  to File:"
  caption,  and press  <enter>. You  will be  returned to the program
  proper, and  all program output  will be captured  to the file  you
  chose.

  You may also use the other controls as you would in most interfaces
  of  this type.  You can  highlight a  file, then  strike <enter> or
  "press" the  OK command button with  your mouse. Navigation through
  disks   and   directories   is   most   easily   learned   thorough
  experimentation,  so  try  tabbing  and  selecting  or  mousing and
  clicking until you have the hang of it.

  You can  always tell if a  file is selected for  output by invoking
  the disk output menu choice again  from the program. The dialog box
  will  open with  all controls  displayed, and  the output file name
  displayed in the  "Output to File:" box. TO  stop file output, just
  unselect the "Output to File:" checkbox either by tabbing to it and
  pressing  the space  bar, or  by clicking  on it  with your  mouse.
  Return  to the  main program  by pressing  the cancel  button or by
  pressing <escape>.

  If you wish  to search through a large number  of files and want to
  restrict the file  listing to a particular mask,  you may enter the
  file  mask (for  example, *.  TXT or  REPORT.*) in  the "Output  to
  File:" box and strike <enter>. This  action will mask the files you
  do not wish to choose from and perhaps speed your work.
