|

| The Edit function must be invoked to see the contents of all other fields.

By default, records are viewed in order by Booth Number order when the view is first opened. There is a status field to the right of the View By button which indicates the current viewing order. The viewing order can be changed by:
| · | Clicking <Edit> on the Menu Bar, then clicking <View Records by>, or
|
| · | Clicking on the <View> button in the lower left hand corner of the form, or
|
| · | Pressing <CTRL><W> (the "short-cut" key sequence).
|
Doing any of the above displays a speed menu (shown in the sample screen below) from which a different viewing order can be selected below (a check mark is displayed in front of the current order).
|
Select a viewing order by:
| · | Clicking the desired order with the mouse, or
|
| · | Using the <UP-ARROW> and <DOWN-ARROW> keys to hi-light the desired order, then press <ENTER>, or
|
| · | Pressing the underlined letter of the desired order
|
Doing any of the above re-arranges the records in the grid according to the selected order.
| The program attempts to keep the currently hi-lighted record in the grid at its current position, but this is not always possible.
