                                Time Sheet Tips
                                

                  Note: D = Command Key to use to enter date.

                  However if the employee's names are SAVED and

                  the date is incorrect, then use T to enter the

                  day & date, note when the time sheet is saved 
                  
                  the date reverts back to the previous date. The 
                  
                  same holds true with L for location and N for 
                  
                  Name of Company. This cannot be helped as the 

                  header area cannot be saved once employee names

                  have been selected.

                  If S is used and you realize the list of names

                  saved is not the one you want, then Press X

                  Y now type a name not previously used press

                  enter.  The following warning will appear on

                  screen.
       
       Data NOT FOUND: File Will Not be saved Name is Still Available.

                  If you wish to modify a name list for a time

                  sheet, select C Com Key you can then customize the 
                  
                  list even add a name not in the Employee Names List.  
                  
                  If however you inadvertently select C, Press X to 
                  
                  return to the time sheet and then PgUp or PgDn to 
                  
                  select the desired names list.

                  The most important item to think of when entering
                  
                  DATA in this file is the foreman should be at the
                  
                  top of the list.  Exceptions to this are when a
                  
                  foreman supervises more than ten employee's. In

                  this case there is on reason to place the foreman 
                  
                  at the top of the second sheet.
                  
                  To view Employee's Identification numbers: 
                  
                  You type key indicated between <  >'s only.
                  
                  
                  Type # Command Key then <Caps Lock> <o> <f> <f>
                  Hide Identification numbers: # Command Key then <h>

                  Other commands:
                  
                  
                  $ I = Sort by Identification Number

                  When Sort menu is on screen I Command Key does not

                  appear as an option, don't worry use it anyway.

                  It is one of those un-documented commands.
                  
                  Here is another option that can be used to add

                  accumulated hours from a previous file to a 

                  current one.
                  
                  V D <Tot> View only Totals           

                  V D <Sub> View only Sub Totaled lines  

                  V D <Sub> or <Tot>  allow the creation of a new

                  file containing sub totals or totals only.

                  Com/Key ~ + Enter creates a temporary file.

                  Com/Key S = Save a file

                  The file containing Sub Totals only file can be
                  
                  used to import the current file named Smith into, 
                  
                  then save and total.

                  Pass Word to view employee Identification numbers.

                  # <Caps Lock> <o> <f> <f> to view Employee

                  Identifications.  Note: you will not be prompted

                  for pass word, as in the Employee Names List File.

                     
                            Time Saving Tips
                        

                  The most efficient method to use when creating a
                  
                  new file is to Load an empty file.
                  
                  Example: keep a file named 1 available at all times.

                  [To create 1] V E <goofy> Enter ~ Enter S <1> Enter

                  will create empty file named 1.

                  Assume you wish to see all time for employee Smith
                  for 1995.

                  Load File 1. Then perform the following commands,

                  V E <Smith> Enter A Enter I <ALL1995> Enter
                  
                  ALL1995 was created when Data was exported from the
                  Export file.

                  S <Smith> Enter  Saves new file.

                  ALL1995  Can be any file you have containing data.
