Contact your computer manufacturer, refer to your computer's user manual, or Windows manual for directions on how to change the resolution of your computer. *** The manual for the program was built into the program. It can be viewed or printed while using Media Base 1.0. It contains all information you need to add, edit, delete, print, query, or report the contents of your database.

On page 10 of the instructions there is an index of the main topics of using the program. *** When you are entering a record, and are ready to save it, you can also press the [ESC] (escape key) to save.
