Note:  Control keys are used  by  holding  down  the Control (Ctrl) key with
       your left hand, tapping the appropriate key with your right hand, and
       releasing  the  Control  key.  For example, Ctrl-Backspace is used by
       holding down the Control  key  with  your  left  hand,  pressing  the
       "Backspace" key ONE TIME, and then releasing the Control key.        
                                                                            
                                ENTERING DATA                               
                                                                            
    To enter data  with  full  screen  editing,  use  the  arrow keys or the
"Enter" key to move to the desired data field and then type in the requested
data.   All data may be checked and corrected at any time by using the arrow
keys or the "Enter" key to access the erroneous field and retyping it.    If
any typing error occurs when in  a  field, pressing the "Backspace" key past
the  beginning  of  the  field  will  restore  the original entry.  When all
entries are correct, pressing the "Escape"  key will save all the  data  and
exit from the screen.                                                       
                                                                            
                                QUICK EDITING                               
                                                                            
    Pressing the "End" key  will  always  move  the  cursor to the last data
field  on  the  screen,  pressing the "Home" key will move the cursor to the
first data field on the menu screen,  pressing  "Ctrl-Home"  will  move  the
cursor to the leftmost field  on  the  current line, and pressing "Ctrl-End"
will  move  the  cursor to the rightmost field on the current line.  Use the
"PgUp" and "PgDn" keys to page where appropriate.                           
                                                                            
                         INTER-FIELD EDITING OF DATA                        
                                                                            
    Once you have entered a value into  a  field, the value may be edited as
if  you  were  using a simple word processor program.  To edit an input data
field, use the "Ctrl-Arrow" keys to move the cursor to the desired place  in
the field.  This action will not  change any of the characters in the field.
The  phrase  "Ctrl-Arrow" refers to holding down the Control (Ctrl) key with
your left hand and tapping the left or right arrow key with your right hand.
Once you have moved the cursor to the appropriate spot, you can type in  the
desired characters.                                                         
                                                                            
    If you want to insert characters  into the field, press the "Insert" key
first  to  get into the Insert mode, which will display the characters "INS"
at the bottom right corner of the screen.  Pressing the Insert key a  second
time will return you to  the  overtype  mode  and cause the letters "INS" to
disappear from the bottom right corner of the screen.                       
                                                                            
    For example, suppose you wanted to  change the field "Mr. Jones and Son"
to  "Mr.  and  Mrs. Jones".  Position the cursor to the proper field and use
the Control-Right Arrow key to move to the word "Jones".  Press  the  Insert
key and type "and Mrs. ", which  will  produce the field "Mr. and Mrs. Jones
and  Son".   You can then use the Control-Right Arrow key to move the cursor
to the space after "Jones" and press the DELete key 8 times to erase  "  and
Son".                                                                  ESD 1
                        Program Installation Options                        
    You may customize  the  program  by  specifying  your  monitor type, the
default  data  drive  and  the default data directory.  Initially the values
indicate the current settings.  You may set the values as desired.  When you
attempt to exit the screen, you will be prompted  to  indicate  whether  you
want to install the changes.  If  you  elect to install, the changes will be
made permanent.                                                             
                                                                            
    The monitor type should be set to 1 or 2 for a monochrome monitor and 3,
4 or 5 for a color monitor.   If  you specify type 1, the text will be shown
as  white  characters  on  a  black  background with important text shown in
reverse video (black characters on white background).  Type 2 is similar  to
type 1 except that important text is  highlighted.  If you specify type 3 or
4, the following color scheme is used; type 4 specifies brighter colors:    
                                                                            
    Normal video mode is cyan characters on a black background.             
    Yellow characters on a black background signify prompts.      MORE . . .
    Red on black signify error messages and program description.            
    Green characters on black signify screen titles.                        
    Blue characters on white signify program run-time messages.             
    White characters on black signify comments and calculated fields.       
                                                                            
    If you specify monitor type  5,  a  custom  color  scheme is used.  This
scheme  can  be  modified  by  pressing  the  "F2"  key  to access the color
customization screen.  Initially, the colors are set to a default scheme.   
                                                                            
    A monochrome selection will work  fine  whether you have a monochrome or
color monitor.  A color selection will generally work well only with a color
monitor.  The exception to this is when your computer uses a video card that
will show color in shades of gray when used with monochrome monitors.       
                                                                            
    For the default data drive, input  the letter corresponding to the drive
where  any  project  information will be stored.  The default data directory
should  be  the  subdirectory  on  the  default  data  drive  where  project
information will be stored.  If you leave the drive input blank, it will  be
assumed to be the "current"  drive.    Similarly, if you leave the directory
input  blank,  it  will be assumed to be the "current" directory.  A program
copy installed to use the "current" drive will set the default drive to  the
currently logged drive at the  time  it  is  run.    The same applies to the
"current" directory.                                                        
                                                                            
    On a two floppy system, the  default  drive  will normally be set to "B"
and  the  default directory will be left blank.  On a hard disk system, both
items will typically be left blank; in this situation, all program files are
assumed to be in one subdirectory on the hard disk.                         
                                                                      ESD 77
                            Current Color Value                             
    The colors specified here will be  effective if the program is installed
to  use Monitor Type 5.  Colors can be specified for six types of text.  Use
the Color Reference Table to locate a  desired  foreground/background  color
combination and enter the associated number.  The sample program text to the
left of the color field will immediately be shown in the selected color.    
                                                                            
    Edit all the color values  as  desired  to define a custom color scheme.
Then press the "Escape" key to exit to the main installation screen.  To use
the  custom  color  scheme,  specify  a  monitor  type of 5.  Then press the
"Escape" key to exit to the Master Menu.  The program  will  prompt  you  to
indicate whether you want to install the  changes.  If you elect to install,
the custom color scheme will become effective.                              
                                                                            
    The color values can be  reset  to  one  of  three schemes by use of the
function keys "F3", "F4", and "F5".  "F3" and "F4" specify Normal and Bright
color  schemes,  respectively.  Note that Monitor Type values of 3 and 4 use
these color schemes.  "F5" specifies a default custom scheme.  If you  like,
you may use any of these schemes as a starting point.                       
                                                                     ESD 123
