PERSONAL DATA HELP FILE -- Silicon Secretary V1.3 December 15, 1990 For a description of the menu options click on the SCREEN and press the HELP key or choose HELP from the menu. The status of everything in this window is saved with the data file. >>> The following string gadgets are available: BOWLER This is the same name that was already entered in the Team Editor. If you change it here it will change in the Team Editor also. You may search for a bowler's name by entering a question mark followed by a unique portion of the name in the gadget where you would normally enter the bowler's name (either in the team editor personnel window). If a match is found it will be displayed, otherwise the original bowler's name will reappear. Regardless of where you start the search the computer begins with the first bowler in the Sub Team. The search string is NOT case sensitive and may be any part of the bowler's name. OFFICE If the current bowler holds a league office click this gadget until the office appears. The options currently available are: PRESIDENT, VICE PRESIDENT, SECRETARY, TREASURER, SECRETARY/TREASURER SGNT-AT-ARMS, CAPTAIN and the default, NO OFFICE. NOTE: Currently there is no 'error' checking here. Put another way, you could make everyone in the league the president. ADDRESS There are two lines for the bowler's mailing address. PHONE Enter the bowler's phone number here. The program will format it for you in one of two forms, either '123-4567' or '(123) 456-7890'. If the numbers that you entered are too short or long to fit in one of these formats an error message will be displayed. If you live in some far-away land that uses a different format you're SOL. SS # (Social Security Number) The ABC likes Social Security numbers on the End-of-the-Year report. This is where you enter them. When you hit RETURN the program will format the numbers like this '123-45-6789'. The number must be 9 digits long or an error message will be displayed. The exception to this is if you enter a hyphen anywhere in the numbers the program will NOT attempt to reformat the numbers. This is handy when working with Canadian Social Security numbers that are formatted in groups of three (000-000-000). Pressing RETURN on this will cause the next bowler to be displayed, providing there is one. TEAM # & BOWLER # To the right of the PHONE the program will display the current team number and bowler number on that team. These are not editable. PRINT Will dump the current bowler to the bowler's information to the printer regardless of the menu settings. FREE or SYNCH if the TEAM EDITOR window is open and SYNCH is selected the bowlers in both windows will move together. If FREE is chosen they will scroll independently of each other. ARROW UP & ARROW DOWN Scrolls you backward or forward one bowler until you release the left mouse button or get to the beginning or end of the bowlers.
