<H3>Creating and Editing Lists</H3>
<p>
Create a list with the <b>New List</b> pick on the <b>File</b> menu. You
can edit your list at any time by double-tapping its name, or
choosing the <b>Properties</b> menu pick or button.
The List Properties dialog box lets you create and edit your lists.
<p>
Enter the name of the list in the <b>List Name</b> field. A name is required for
all lists.
<p>
Use the <b>Use Flag Field</b> check box if you want to use
the list as a <a href="file:lp_twostep.htp">Two-Step, or Shopping List</a>.
When you do this, the
Flag column appears in the list. You can
flag items in this column, then choose the Flag Tool to show a list containing
only those flagged items.
<p>
Check <b>Clear Amounts When Resetting</b> if you want the <b>Amounts</b> of
each item to be cleared when you reset the list.
<p>
Check <b>Enter Amount on Flag Item</b> if you want to be prompted for
an amount <b><i>when you click a Flag</i></b>. You might
want to do this with a shopping list so that when you decide you need an item, you
can include how many of that item that you need.
<p>
Check <b>Enter Amount on Check Item</b> if you want to be prompted
for an amount when you check an item. You might want to do this if
each item is something you're buying and you want to track how much money
you're spending as you shop.
<p>
Check <b>Show Dialog on List Completion</b> to display a
window when you've completed all items on the list. This window
will allow you to reset the list.
<p>
The <b>Fields</b> section of this window allows you to choose
which columns will be displayed on the screen for this list. See
<a href="file:lp_listfeats.htp">List Features</a> to see how to use
these fields. Note that all the fields exist in each list, regardless of
whether you choose to display them, so you can enter information for
any field for any item, and display it by double-tapping on that item.
You can always hide any columns in a list without losing any
information in that field.
<p>
You can use <b>Fields</b> to control
which fields
are <b>imported</b> and <b>exported</b> to and from files. See
<a href="file:lp_imp.htp">Importing and Exporting lists</a>
for more information.
