On-Line Help System
An on-line help system has been added to some of the maintenance programs for
inventory items, customers, vendors, and General Ledger as well as the Variable
File. On-line help allows you to gain information about any data field on the
maintenance screen by pressing F1 (function key 1) when the cursor is positioned
on the field.
F NOTE: For SuperDOS systems, the program Flipscreen from Bluebird Systems is required and
must be running on any port that wants to use on-line help. Flipscreen is optional
software that must be purchased. If you do not have Flipscreen and would like more
information, contact Dimensions, Inside Sales Department.

Standard on-line help text is stored in HLPSTND.D and its index HLPSTND.I1.
