Below is a complete help for the function
keys and menu.
Help on function keys:
F1-This help screen.
F2-Top
Go to the 'TOP' of the database
according to the CURRENT INDEX.
F3-Bottom
Go to the 'BOTTOM' of the database
according to the CURRENT INDEX.
F5-Filter
Allow you to limit the database to the
STATE you wish to view or print. CURRENT
INDEX will automatically be set to CITY
when FILTER is in use. The 'F5-Filter'
will light up when FILTER is active. To
remove FILTER, enter a blank string.
F9-DELETE record!
Use this with C A U T I O N !
This function is not on the Screen Menu.
Allow you to delete the current record
on the screen. It will then reindex the
database. THIS WILL TAKE A WHILE due to
the large database.
F10-Print listing of records to a printer,
file or screen. Listing is printed
according to CURRENT INDEX and FILTER
value. If no FILTER is set, the program
will print the whole database listing
according to the CURRENT INDEX.
Main Menu Help:
Find
Find the exact string according to the
CURRENT INDEX. For example, if the
current index is a zipcode, then the
only string allowable to be entered is a
string of numbers. If the entered string
does not exitst, this function will try
to provide the user the closest option
it can get.
Search
Will search all fields for a match to
the entered string. This method will
take a little longer than the regular
'Find' function due to scanning the
entire fileds in the database.
Index
Allow you to switch to a different INDEX
available for the database. In this case
is CITY and ZIPCODE depending on which
component you want to 'find'. When
browsing a FILTERED database, set the
index to ZIPCODE to achive faster
performance.
Browse
Allow you browse 14 records at once
according to the CURRENT INDEX. It is
handy if you would like to see a group of
records and compare them.
Edit
Allow you to edit CURRENT RECORD
displayed on the screen. If you find
record is wrong or misspelled, please
correct it using this function. Once
editing is done, the record will be saved
automatically.
Add
Allow you to add a new record to the
database. Use this function to add new
city and zipcodes. You have to press
<ENTER> every time after you fill in the
fields. Hitting <ESCAPE> while editing
will disregard all the new data and it
will not be saved to the disk. At the
STATE field, enter a 2-letter state
abbreviation. If you are not sure what
the state abbreviation is, press <F10>
key to select from the menu.
Quit
Easy enough! Get out of this program.
