GENERAL HELP
ENTERING DATES: You may either: 1) use the arrow, PgUp, and PgDn keys to
move around the on-screen calendar, pressing the RET key when the date you
want is highlighted; or 2) enter the date directly at the cursor. If you do
the latter, it should be in this form: DA MON YR, where MON is the first
three letters of the month whose date you're entering (eg: 2 OCT 89).
PAUSING: When you find the computer in the middle of some lengthy proce-
dure, such as printing a report, and you want to pause, press the space bar.
Doing so will cause the process to stop until you press the space bar again.
ABORTING: If, instead of wishing that the computer pause in the middle of
a procedure, you prefer to abort that procedure altogether, press ESC.
REPORTS: Whenever you are about to have a report printed on the screen,
and you would prefer that it be printed on your printer, press ^P just before
the report preparation begins. You may send the data to a disk file, instead
of the printer, by pressing ^F (in place of ^P). The file created or appen-
ded, named "TEXT.MX", may then be modified with most any text editor.
"S" = fill in the current field with identical data from the last record
F3 = reformat a multi-line field; that is, fill up incomplete lines with
portions of subsequent lines and make all lines about the same length
F9 = erase a complete line
