SAVING INFO
_____________
The #1 most asked question concerning L-Soft Atlanta database style programs
is "How Do I Save the Record?". The answer is simple YOU don't! WE DO!!
A Quick MaxTrax Lesson:
_______________________
The name MAXTRAX is for "Maximum Translator Expansion Module". You don't see
it, but it's in every database style program we write, and included in the
L-Soft.VBX file we install for you at the time you install the software.
Maxtrax "Translates" or changes, the record you are saving into Windows access
code and allows Windows to save the file for you each time you move from the
current record displayed on the screen. This takes the place of the file save
dialog, select the filename ,etc. you're used to, and makes the software run
faster for you. Index,or file access by field name is controlled by Maxtrax
alone! It files, sorts, translates, and displays, in under 2 seconds!
How DO I Save a Record?
_______________________
Simply MOVE to the next record, or click ADD! Maxtrax "sees" your move and
saves the current record BEFORE the next record is displayed or added!
How DO I MOVE??
_______________
Along the bottom of the screen is the "FAST ACCESS" keybar. This allows you
to quickly move from record to record with a click of the mousebutton.
|<
___
Moves you to the first record in the database.
<
____
Moves you to the PREVIOUS record
>
__
Moves you to the NEXT record
>|
___
Moves you to the last record
It's that fast and easy!! Just remember that your records are in sorted order,
and the first record sorted will always be displayed when you first load the
program. Clicking ADD will clear your screen and allow you to enter new
information, or overwritting the current record will then add that new info
into the current record. Moving again will save the info for you each time.
NEVER!!: Never EXIT after an ADD or UPDATE without MOVING to the next record!
Doing so will result in your information being lost! Maxtrax WILL NOT save on
an Exit command!!
End of Saving Info Help!
