Moving Around the Database

The company and contact records are stored in alphabetical order. You can view the previous or next record in the database by pressing the or buttons. Alternatively, provided the company or contact window has focus, you can use the Left or Right keys on the keyboard to move to the previous or next record. Pressing the Home key on the keyboard will take you to the first company or contact record in the database and pressing the End key will take you to the last record. If the company or contact window does not have focus then the Left and Right cursor keys may not be used since they will perform other actions specific to the window that has focus. Instead, depressing the Ctrl key whilst using the Left and Right cursor keys will move to the previous or next record accordingly. You can use the alphabetical index at the top of the Company or Contact Window to show the first record beginning with the letter that you select. For example, to move directly to the first record beginning with the letter P, press the P tab in the alphabetical index. If there are no records beginning with P, OfficeTalk will display a blank Company or Contact view.
