3. The Display Window
. Displays the current value of each
field in the data base record
Use this screen for recording the basic info-
mation of a participant plus transferring data
from prior logs or records. Required fields when
adding a participant to the database are First and
Last Name, Sex, and Height. All other fields are
optional. Once a participant is in the data base
all time and distance fields will automatically be
updated as you record individual events.
To select a field for editing move the pointer to
the field name using the Up or Down Arrow keys
then press the Enter key. The current value of the
field will be shown in the edit window. You can
now edit the value of this field. Pressing the
Enter key will clear the field from the edit
window and update the value of the field as
displayed in the display window. Pressing the Esc
key will clear the field from the edit window
without updating the value of the field.
Two screens are needed to display all the fields
in a data base record. These screens are Page 1
and Page 2. The current page number is shown at
the top of the display window. Use the Page Up and
Page Down keys to move between the pages.
The select window also contains the two Action
Buttons. These buttons allow you to complete the
action (Add,Change,Delete) or to cancel the action
and return to the previous menu. Each press of the
Ctrl and Right Arrow keys at the same time will
activate the Action Buttons in succession.
Pressing the Enter key will complete the action
you have selected.
Add Information:
When you are adding a participant to the data base
the selection window has an automatic advance
feature. Each press of the Enter key will auto-
matically display the next field in the edit
window allowing you to edit this field. Pressing
the Esc key will break out of the auto advance
allowing you to select a field manually. After
manual selection the auto advance will be reen-
abled from this point. The auto advance is
restricted to each page of the display. To change
pages requires pressing the Page Up or Page Down
key.
Change Information:
You may change any field in the displayed data
base record by manually selecting the field for
editing. You cannot blank the First Name, Last
Name, Sex, or Height fields since they are
required for every data base record.
Delete Information:
The delete function does not allow any field
editing. The first page of the record selected for
deletion is displayed for verification purposes.
The record will not be deleted until you select
the Delete Button and then press the Enter key.
