• With this option on, you can type all lower case letters and the first letter of each word will be switched to an upper case letter. If you want the first letter in lower case, hold the shift key. Command-A toggles this feature on and off.
• Either turn this feature off or set Caps Lock when entering U.K. postal codes.
‚à´Names
• Entering the last name first brings order to the index pages. Put a period after the last name as in “Smith. John D.” The period/space combination allows the name flip to work when you print labels and envelopes.
• In the View Record window, press “f” to check the flip.
‚à´Titles
• The name flip looks for the first period followed by a space. “Smith M.D., PhD. John D.” flips at PhD. to “John D. Smith M.D., PhD.”
‚à´Phone Numbers
• A typical phone number may be 222 333 4567 (Home). If you include extension numbers, the letter x or p tells the dialer to ignore any following numbers. For example, 222 333 4567 Ext 888 will not dial the 888; see Dial Help for further information about prefixes, etc.
‚à´Editing
• Cut, Copy and Paste are activated by the Command- X, C and V keys.
‚à´Tab & Return keys
• The Tab key is normally used to step through the fields. The Return key also steps from the Name & first two Phone Number fields. In the Address & Comment fields, the returns are limited to the number of lines in those fields. Should a line of text wrap to the next line, it is possible for the text to scroll up out of sight as returns are entered.
