Populating Fields
There are three ways to enter information in a field, as described below.
• Type the first character or first few characters of the entry.
With the cursor positioned on the field, begin to type the entry. As soon as
you type enough characters to uniquely identify the desired entry, the
system automatically supplies the remaining characters. If the entry is
invalid, the system beeps and removes the invalid characters.
For example, given the Day: field in Figure 10 on page 10 , assume that
valid entries are the names of the days in the week. When you type M, the
system fills in the entire word
Monday because there is only one valid
entry that begins with M .
However, if you type S, the system waits before filling in the day of the
week because there are two valid entries that begin with
S (Saturday and
Sunday). At this point, if you type a, the system fills in the word Saturday .
If you type u, the system fills in the word Sunday . This technique is not
case-sensitive. In other words, typing either M or m in the above example
results in the system filling in the word
Monday .
• Press F 2 (Choices) for a list of valid entries for the particular field.
