- PERSONAL DATA HELP FILE -- Silicon Secretary V1.51 October 6, 1991
-
- For a description of the menu options click on the SCREEN and press
- the HELP key or choose HELP from the menu.
-
- The status of everything in this window is saved with the data file.
-
- >>> The following string gadgets are available:
-
- BOWLER
- This is the same name that was already entered in the Team Editor.
- If you change it here it will change in the Team Editor also.
-
- You may search for a bowler's name by entering a question mark
- followed by a unique portion of the name in the gadget where you
- would normally enter the bowler's name (either in the team editor
- personnel window). If a match is found it will be displayed, otherwise
- the original bowler's name will reappear. Regardless of where you
- start the search the computer begins with the first bowler in the
- Sub Team. The search string is NOT case sensitive and may be any part
- of the bowler's name.
-
- OFFICE
- If the current bowler holds a league office click this gadget until
- the office appears. The options currently available are:
- PRESIDENT, VICE PRESIDENT, SECRETARY, TREASURER, SECRETARY/TREASURER
- SGNT-AT-ARMS, CAPTAIN and the default, NO OFFICE.
-
- NOTE: Currently there is no 'error' checking here. Put another way,
- you could make everyone in the league the president.
-
- ADDRESS
- There are two lines for the bowler's mailing address.
-
- PHONE
- Enter the bowler's phone number here. The program will format it
- for you in one of two forms, either '123-4567' or '(123) 456-7890'.
- If the numbers that you entered are too short or long to fit in one
- of these formats an error message will be displayed. If you live
- in some far-away land that uses a different format you're SOL.
-
- SS # (Social Security Number)
- The ABC likes Social Security numbers on the End-of-the-Year report.
- This is where you enter them. When you hit RETURN the program will
- format the numbers like this '123-45-6789'. The number must be 9
- digits long or an error message will be displayed. The exception to
- this is if you enter a hyphen anywhere in the numbers the program
- will NOT attempt to reformat the numbers. This is handy when working
- with Canadian Social Security numbers that are formatted in groups
- of three (000-000-000). Pressing RETURN on this will cause the next
- bowler to be displayed, providing there is one.
-
- TEAM # & BOWLER #
- To the right of the PHONE the program will display the current team
- number and bowler number on that team. These are not editable.
-
- PRINT
- Will dump the current bowler to the bowler's information to the printer
- regardless of the menu settings.
-
- FREE or SYNCH
- if the TEAM EDITOR window is open and SYNCH is selected the bowlers
- in both windows will move together. If FREE is chosen they will
- scroll independently of each other.
-
- ARROW UP & ARROW DOWN
- Scrolls you backward or forward one bowler until you release the left
- mouse button or get to the beginning or end of the bowlers.
-
