Tutorial TopicsThis first set of topics (up to Ending the Programme) explains
concepts to give you an understanding of how WVH works. The topics from File on
down through Help give you information on how to use a specific item on WVH's
menus.

Ending WVH (return to DOS)When you are finished using WVH and want to end the
programme just select the E|x|it option under the |F|ile menu.~~If all menus
are closed, just press |Fx|. Alternately, you can highlight the File menu,
press ÄÙEnter, then press the up arrow to highlight "Exit" and press ÄÙEnter.
Still another method is to use a mouse: click on "File" to activate the file
menu then click on "Exit."

How to print the documentationThere are four documentation files which came
with your copy of WVH:~~1. |READ.ME| ÄÄ Things to know before using WVH and
tips to help get you started~2. |WVH.TXT| ÄÄ ASCII text file of the shareware
manual (which differs from the more in-depth printed manual)~3. |WVH.WP| ÄÄ
WordPerfect 5 file of the shareware manual~4. |ORDER.FRM| ÄÄ A blank invoice
for ordering all of my software (an invoice & registration form is included in
the WVH.TXT and WVH.WP files).~~Go to the DOS prompt and change to your WVH
directory (e.g., "cd \wvh"). Now, to |display| one of the ASCII files:~~||
Type "|LIST filename|" - If you have LIST in your computer you will see the
file appear almost instantly~~|| If you don't have LIST (the computer said
'bad command or file name') then use "|MORE < filename|"~~To |print| a file
enter "|TYPE filename > PRN|"~~If you have WordPerfect just load WVH.WP. You
will see instructions in a comment inside the file.

How to registerIf you use WVH past the 60-day trial period you must pay the
registeration fee. With registration:~~|û| You'll get the latest version with
automated installation~~|û| You will be entitled to free technical support via
telephone, mail, and BBS~~|û| You may order a printed and 3-ring bound
manual~~|û| The pauses at start-up and exit will go away~~|Registering Through
the Mail|~~|1.| Choose the |H|elp/|O|rder Form option from WVH's menu and
prepare your printer. If you print the instruction manual (see "Printing The
Documentation") the order form can be found on or around page 6.~~|2.| Fill in
and send it with payment to Box 132, Paonia, CO 81428 USA. Your Registered
Edition disk with automated installation will arrive in 1-4 weeks.~~|Credit
Card Orders|~~If you prefer to use a credit card, you can order WML from Public
(software) Library with your MC, Visa, AmEx, or Discover card by calling
|800-242-4PsL| (from overseas 713-524-6394) or by FAX to 713-524-6398 or by
CompuServe to 71355,470. |These numbers are for ordering ONLY.| I CANNOT be
reached at those numbers. To contact me for information about dealer pricing,
volume discounts, site licensing, the status of shipment of the product, the
latest version number, or for technical information, call 303-527-6756 or write
me at Box 132, Paonia, CO 81428 USA. The idea of Shareware is to try before you
buy, so product returns are not allowed.~~When ordering from PsL ask for
|product no. 11518|. PsL will add $3 for shipping & handling to U.S. and
Canadian orders.~~|Software Updates|~~WVH is constantly being enhanced. Updates
are released every one to six weeks. As new features are added and the time &
money investment in development increases, WVH ends up competing with
higher-priced products, so the price is sometimes raised to reflect the
dramatic increase in its value. By registering now, you pay the current low
price and are entitled to get all the higher-priced features for free.~~Once
you register you can get |updates for free| from a local BBS. If you cannot
find updates on a local BBS or you do not use a modem, you may order an update
disk through the mail for $7 (plus foreign shipping, if any).~~|Update
Subscription|~~You can subscribe to receive updates automatically through the
mail. As important new versions become available (every 2-4 months), I will
mail you an update disk so you will always have the latest version. In return
you will be expected to send $7 (plus foreign shipping, if any) to me within 15
days or return the disk to cancel the subscription.

How to obtain updatesIf a message appears on your screen informing you that
the software is out-dated, it is an indication that the latest version of WVH
has vastly improved ÄÄ it probably has many more features and enhancements. You
can also use the command DIR WVH.EXE to look at the date of the WVH programme;
if it is over a year old you would probably be amazed at the improvements you
could be using.~~I want you to evaluate and use the latest and best version, so
here is how you can obtain an update:~~þ If you have a modem, look around page
5 of the documentation (WVH.TXT or WVH.WP) for the list of official
distribution bulletin board systems. You can call any of these systems and get
the latest version for free (except for long distance charges, of course).~~þ
Send $4 for an Organic Software Sampler disk plus $3 shipping within the
Continental U.S., $5 shipping to Canada, or $9 shipping to other countries.
Send U.S. funds or equivalent cash in your local currency. This disk contains
the latest versions of all my Shareware. Be sure to specify the disk size and
density you require.~~þ Call (800) 242-4PsL and order the latest version from
Public (software) Library. Ask for product #11518. PsL can also take credit
card orders for registrations.

Menu UsageWVH uses the same type of menu found in Windows, Gem, QuickBASIC,
and "Mac" computers. The menu, which is on the second line of your screen, is
two-dimensional: there are |menu headings| horizontally and under each of these
are the actual |menu items|. There are three ways to choose a menu item:~~1.
Use the right, left, up, and down arrows to highlight the item you want then
press |ÄÙEnter|, or~~2. Press the highlighted letter of the menu item, or~~3.
Use a mouse to highlight a choice; select it by clicking the left button.~~For
example, you can press |F| then |x| to exit WVH, or highlight |File| then press
the down arrow and highlight |Exit| then press |ÄÙEnter|.~~|NOTES|~~To
pull-down (|open|) a menu just highlight it then press |ÄÙEnter| or the
|down-arrow| key.~~To |close| a menu just press the |Esc| key. It is not
necessary to close a menu. You can use the right/left arrows with the menus
opened to browse all of the options. Usually the only reason to close a menu is
so you can use the letters instead of arrows (e.g., if you had the File menu
open and wanted to use the Help Index you could press Esc to close the File
menu then press |H|-|I| to jump to the Help Index).

Status LineWVH has a status line at the bottom of the screen which looks like
this:~~|Vehicles³Inventory Items³Sched. Maint.³01-01-1980|~~From left to right
the items are:~1. Total vehicles on file~2. Total inventory items on file~3.
Total maintenance events scheduled~4. To-day's date (so far as the computer
knows).

Technical SupportSupport is provided for |registered users and those
intending to register within 30 days.| If you are having a problem and intend
to register once it is resolved, by all means please ask for help.~~By mail:

FileIn general, using the File menu is like going over to your paper filing
cabinet. Under this menu are options to work with the files stored on your
disk.~~You can select options in one of two ways:~~|| Use the up- and
down-arrow keys to highlight the item you want then press |Í¾Enter|, or~~||
press the highlighted letter for the item.

Back-upMakes a back-up copy of your data files. You must have a formatted
floppy disk ready. You can use the same back-up disk over and over again (the
new copy will over-write the old one), but it may be a good idea to alternate
at least three back-up copies.~~|NOTES|~~Use a rotating back-up scheme with at
least three sets of disks or tapes.~~When the work you've done since your last
back-up becomes too much to lose, it's time to make another back-up.~~See
Preferences Back-up for information on selecting a back-up method. Using
compression software for back-ups requires more memory than DOS. |Use
Help/About| to see your free memory.~~|| ARJ 2.30 needs at least |242k| free
while WVH is running~~|| LHARC 2.13 needs at least |189k| free~~|| PKZip 1.1
needs at least |119k| free

RestoreUse this to recover your data files from a back-up copy ÄÄ this is the
opposite of the Back-up function ÄÄ if data files become damaged or are
accidentally erased.~~|CAUTION|~~Restoring data files |replaces| the existing
files with the ones on the back-up disk.~~If you want to restore only |some| of
the files and not others, you must do so manually from the DOS prompt.

Format FloppiesWVH first tries to find WFF.EXE in your DOS search path. If
found, What Floppy Format? is run; otherwise, you will be asked to specify a
drive and the DOS FORMAT command will be used.~~|CAUTION|~~Formatting
completely erases any information which may be on a disk.~~|NOTES|~~Your DOS
|path| must point to |format.com| (which is probably in your DOS directory). If
it does not you will see 'Bad command or file name' flash on your screen and
disks will not be formatted.~~No parameters are passed to FORMAT ÄÄ your
drive's highest density will be used.

Reindex all filesUse this if the computer loses power abruptly or for any
other reason you seem to be missing data. This goes through the files and
re-builds each index file. It takes a while, but it sorts everything out and
your data will all be back the way you expect it to be.

Pack filesThis function removes the records you have deleted. When you delete
a record it is marked but not actually deleted. When you use this Pack function
the file is stripped of all the deleted records. The result is that the file
size shrinks, saving disk space, and the access speed may improve if you have
large files. If there are no deleted records in a file this function won't do
anything (although it is safe tu use it at any time, of course).

ExitEnd WVH (which will return you to DOS or your menu). Always exit the
programme before turning your computer's power off.

Data EntryThese screens let you enter information about the vehicles your
company has, the divisions or departments in your company, and the types of
service (usually 3,000 mile service, 6,000 mile service, etc.). Once you have
set-up your vehicles, divisions, and service codes, you can use the Maintenance
option to enter service information.

MaintenanceThis is where you enter the actual service performed on a vehicle,
including parts used. The steps in this process are:~~ |1.| Select a
vehicle~|2.| Select a service code~|3.| Select a date or "new"~|4.| Enter the
service information.~~Step 4, entering the service information, has three
windows. You can |jump| between the windows by pressing the |F6| key.~~If you
need to change to tax rate or set it to zero just use the |F3| key. You will
notice as the function of the F3 key changes the description near the bottom of
the screen changes as well. See the bottom of your screen for other special
action keys.

Labour windowMaint_LbrIn this window you enter the mechanic or shop that
performed the service, the date of the service, odometer/hour meter reading,
labour hours, and labour rate (if allowed in the Preferences/Sales Tax
set-up).~~|Function Keys|~~|þ| The |F5| key allows you to change the sales tax
figure. Each time you press F5 you will step through the sequence of
default-tax-rate then no-tax then special-tax-rate.~~|þ| Press the |F6| key to
"jump" between the three windows.~~|þ| Press the |F7| key to save the
information on the screen to disk and back up to the vehicle selection
window.~~|þ| Press the |F9| key to print a Repair Order for the service on the
screen.

MechanicMaint_MechNoThis is the first field in the Labour window of the
Maintenance data entry screen.~~Here you enter the code for the mechanic who
performed the service. Press the |F3| key to pop open a window of choices.

Parts windowMaint_PartsIn this window you enter the parts used for this
service entry. You can enter any part description and price, however if you
enter a valid inventory code then the part's description and price will be
taken from the inventory data base.~~|þ| Press the |F3| key to pop open a
window of inventory choices while you are on the description field.~~|þ| Press
the |F4| key to open a detailed information window for the line item.~~|þ|
Press the |F6| key to "jump" between the three windows.~~|þ| Press the |F7| key
to save the information on the screen to disk and back up to the vehicle
selection window.~~|þ| Press the |F9| key to print a Repair Order for the
service on the screen.

Comments windowMaint_CmtsIn this window you can enter any comments
pertaining to the service. Anything you type here will appear on service
history reports.~~|þ| Press the |F6| key to "jump" between the three
windows.~~|þ| Press the |F7| key to save the information on the screen to disk
and back up to the vehicle selection window~~|þ| Press the |F9| key to print a
Repair Order for the service on the screen.

Part code/descriptionMaint_PartNoThis is the second field on each line in
the parts window of the Maintenance data entry screen.~~Here you enter a part
description or an inventory item code. Press the |F3| key to pop open a window
of choices.

Divisions/OwnersThis portion of the WVH data base is to keep track of the
owners of each vehicle, or the department or division within your company which
is reponsible for maintaining each one. WVH uses these Divisions to print
billing statements, which can also be used to separate the costs of maintaining
different categories of equipment.~~|EXAMPLES|~~|Within a Large Company|~~If
your company has a large fleet of vehicles, each owned by different departments
or divisions within the company, you will want to define each department or
division. As you enter each vehicle into the data base, specify the responsible
department/division for the vehicle. At regular intervals (monthly, quarterly,
or whatever your schedule is), you can print billing statements for each
division so the accounting department knows whose budgets are being used for
what and also so each department can keep track of what their vehicles are
costing them to maintain.~~|An Independent Contractor|~~Another example might
be if you are a contractor performing maintenance for many different companies.
In this case you would want to use the divisions as "Owner codes." Set up each
of your customers with a code and then specify that code for each of their
vehicles. At regular intervals you can then print billings for each of your
customers~~|A Diverse Company|~~Let's say that you maintain a wide range of
vehicles, from tractors, to big rigs, to company cars. You might want to have
separate listings for the maintenance costs for each type of vehicle. So you
could set up a division code for cars, one for excavation equipment, one for
tractor/trailers, etc. and then define each vehicle with the appropriate code.
Then you can print out billing statements which would give you a summary of the
costs to maintain each type of vehicle.

NameDivEdit1This is the customer, department, or owner's name. If it is an
individual, enter the person's name on this line and leave the "Attn:" line
blank.

Attn:DivEdit2This is the person within the department or organization to
whom invoices and statements are sent.

PricingDivEdit3This determines the price this owner will be charged for
parts. If the owner is a division or department within your company, you will
probably sell parts at "Cost plus overhead." To charge cost without overhead,
just enter zero for overhead on the Preferences/Inventory screen.

G/L AcctDivEdit4This is the General Ledger income account number your
company uses to post earnings from this division/owner.

VehiclesVEditUse this screen to enter & edit static information about
vehicles. (Information which changes, such as the odometer reading, is entered
on the Maintenance screen.) This screen has two windows:~~|| a code window
showing the codes for each vehicle defined, and~~|| a data window showing the
information for that vehicle code.~~You start out in the code window (you will
see a highlighted code to indicate your position; this is the computer's
|cursor|). You can move the cursor with the arrow keys and the PgUp and PgDn
keys on your keyboard. You can also locate codes by pressing a letter or number
and the window will "jump" to the codes which begin with that letter or
number.~~|Editing Existing Codes|~~To change information for an existing
vehicle code just highlight the code (as explained above) and press ÄÙEnter.
The cursor will "jump" to the right-hand window where you can modify the
information. You can use the arrow keys in the right-hand data window just like
in the code window. Notice the function keys at the bottom of the screen. To
save your changes press the |F7| key.~~|Inserting New Vehicles|~~To add new
vehicles, press the |Ins| (insert) key. WVH will jump to the bottom of the code
window and wait for you to enter a vehicle code. Codes can be anything that
makes sense to you ÄÄ a company ID number, the first letter of the manufacturer
followed by a number, etc. Each vehicle must have a unique code. Enter the code
and press ÄÙEnter and the cursor will jump to the data window. Enter whatever
is needed here and press |F7| to save.

CodeVEdit0Each vehicle must have a unique code which identifies it - this is
a "short-hand" way of referring to each vehicle. To help in locating vehicles
later on, try to use codes that make sense to you. For example, you might use
the first letter of the vehicle's manufacturer or you might choose to group
vehicles by function, beginning all construction equipment with a C, for
example.

DescriptionVEdit1This is a short description of the vehicle.

Department/OwnerVEdit2This is the owner of a vehicle or the department or
division within a company which is responsible for it's maintenance costs. You
may enter a code or press the |F3| key to open a window of choices.

VINVEdit3This is the Vehicle's Identification Number which is stamped on
metal, usually visible through the front windshield. This "number" contains
letters, too.

LicenseVEdit4This is the code on a vehicle's license plate (letters and
numbers).

Other NumberVEdit5Off-road equipment does not usually have a VIN, but these
items do have some type of ID code, usually stamped in metal somewhere. You can
enter any extra information in this field that helps to identify a vehicle or
mechanical device.

Meter typeVEdit6This field specifies whether the vehicle has an odometer or
an hour-meter. When this field is highlighted, press the |F3| key to list the
available choices, then use the arrow keys to highlight your choice and press
ÄÙEnter.

Deleting VehiclesHighlight a vehicle code to delete then press the |Del|
(delete) key. WVH will warn you that the vehicle is about to be erased from the
data base and ask your permission to continue.

Service CodesThis allows you to enter service codes you will use to identify
the type of service given to a vehicle (e.g., 3,000 mile service, 6,000 mile
service, etc.). Special function keys are displayed at the bottom of the
screen.

CodeCode0This is a short code for this service type.

DescriptionCode1This line contains a description for this type of service
(e.g., Brakes, Mufflers, Tune-up, etc.)

MechanicsUse to enter a code, hourly rate, and division/department for each
mechanic or third-party service provider. While on the Division/Owner field you
can press ®F3¯ to open a window of choices. The In-House field indicates
whether this mechanic is in-house or a third party provider (another shop). An
Employee Productivity report can be printed for in-house mechanics.~~A mechanic
is "attached" to each service record. When entering a maintenance (service)
information there is a field for the mechanic code.

NameMech1Enter a mechanic's name or place of service in this field.

RateMech2This is the rate at which this mechanic's or shop's time is billed
to owners/divisions.

Department/DivisionMech3This is the department or division within your
organization to which the mechanic or place of service belongs.

In house?Mech4If the mechanic or shop is part of your company, this field
should be set to "Yes." Otherwise, if you use outside services for repairs, set
it to "No."

Schedule MaintenanceAllows you to schedule vehicles for maintenance. Once
scheduled, you can print a Maintenance Schedule from the Reports menu.

InventoryThis screen lets you define all of your inventory items, including
intangible ones such as 'outside services.' Inventory items can then be used on
the Maintenance Data Entry screen: when entering parts you can type in anything
you like; if you enter an inventory item number then that item's description
and price will be inserted for you.~~See also the other Inventory help topics.

Item codeInvEdit_codeEach item must have a unique code. This is the
short-hand name by which WVH will track movement and sales figures. You may use
up to eight (8) letters and/or numbers for item codes.

Item descriptionInvEdit_descEnter up to 25 characters. This description will
be displayed on the Maintenance data entry screen and will be printed on
reports and invoices.

Unit of measureInvEdit_unitThis is the normal selling quantity. Most things
are sold singly (EACH or UNIT), others are sold as a "BOX" or "SET" or "DOZ" or
"6" or whatever works for you.

Bulk item codeInvEdit_bcodeThis is the item code that you order. For
example, you may have a «-inch nut that you call part "N0.5" but which you
order as part number "100-2938-9922-A15" from your distributor. This code will
be used as WVH learns how to handle purchase orders. :)

Bulk qtyInvEdit_bqtyThis is also known as a "conversion factor." It is the
amount of complete, sellable items you get from one bulk order. If the bulk
order is 12 cans of lubricant which you sell by the can, then the bulk quantity
is 12. If it takes two bulk orders combined to make one item (such as an
assembly) then the bulk quantity is 0.5 (one-half).

Track stock on hand?InvEdit_trackA normal inventory item, like a tire, would
have this field set to "Yes" so that the quantity in stock is tracked.
Intangible items, like block resurfacing which is farmed out to another
company, should have this field set to "No" so that quantities are not tracked.

Quantity on handInvEdit_qohThis is the amount of this item which is on-hand
(in stock) and which was purchased at the cost shown to its right.

CostInvEdit_qohcostThis is the price which was paid for the quantity shown
to the left of this figure.

Quantity on orderInvEdit_qooThis is the amount of this item which is on
order (not in stock).

Cost on orderInvEdit_qoocostThis is the expected cost of each item on order.

Selling pricesInvEdit_sellThe first column should contain the price you
normally charge for the item. The other three prices can contain any sort of
discount you are likely to give on a regular basis. You are always free to
change part costs at the time maintenance information is being entered.

Minimum quantityInvEdit_minqThis is the minimum quantity of the item to keep
in stock. Items which fall below this level will be included in the Inventory
Re-order report.

Maximum quantityInvEdit_maxqThis is the maximum quantity to keep on hand.
When WVH generates a purchase order, it will calculate the quantity to order as
this figure minus stock on hand.

Vendor codeInvEdit_vendThis is the code for the vendor from whom you order
this product. A future release of WVH will have vendor functions; for now this
field does nothing.

VendorsVenEditThis screen allows you to enter and change information about
your parts vendors.

Vendor codeVenEdit0This contains a unique code for each vendor.

Vendor nameVenEdit1This field contains the vendor's name.

Vendor addressVenEdit2This field contains the vendor's address.

Vendor addressVenEdit3This field contains the vendor's 2nd line of address
information (if necessary).

CityVenEdit4This field contains the city of the vendor's mailing address.

State/ProvinceVenEdit5This field contains the state or province
abbreviation for the vendor.

Zip/Postal CodeVenEdit6This field contains the zip code or postal code for
the vendor.

PhoneVenEdit7This field contains the vendor's phone number.

ReportsThis menu lets you display or print the information on file. You will
be asked if you want the report to go to the screen, a printer, or a disk file.

Division ListA list of divisions/departments on file.

Vehicle ListA list of vehicles on file.

Service Code ListA list of the service codes on file.

Mechanic ListA list of Mechanic codes on file. This report was formerly
called the Place Of Service/Employee list.

Maintenance HistoryThis report is a detailed maintenance history for one or
all vehicles. You may select a single vehicle or press the F10 key to report on
all vehicles.

Billing by Division/OwnerPrints billing for each division/owner, showing each
service record - parts, labour, and comments - which has not yet been billed.
When you select this option WVH first scans for unbilled service in the files
and presents a menu of owners/divisions. Select each owner/division for which
you would like a bill printed by pressing the |®SpaceBar¯|. An arrow next to a
name means that a bill will be printed.~~When the billing has been printed WVH
will ask permission to update the files. This is where WVH "remembers" which
items have been billed. If you press |Enter| then the items which were printed
will be flagged as "billed" so they will not print again using this report.

Re-print Billing by dateThis option provides the same report as the Billing
option, but it prints everything on file within a range of dates you provide,
regardless of whether it has been billed or not. Thus you may print a billing
summary to show service done for a division/owner last month, for example.

Employee ProductivityThis report shows the work done by an employee over a
given period of time.

Tickler (Vehicles Due for Svc)List of vehicles which have not been serviced
in a given time interval which you specify before printing the report.

Maintenance ScheduleLists the vehicles scheduled for maintenance between two
dates. This is useful for printing a list of vehicles due to be services today,
this week, etc. This report is |NOT YET FUNCTIONAL|.

PreferencesThis menu lets you change various settings, such as your printer
model and fonts to use for reports.

InventoryPref_InvThese settings control how the inventory is managed. Some
fields, such as the Overhead percentage, require you to enter data from the
keyboard. Others, such as the Standard Selling Price, are a selection made
from a list.~~When a field is a selection from a list, the function key
message |F3/List| will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. Pressing the
F3 key or clicking twice on the same field will pop open a window containing
the list of selections; choose the desired item with a mouse or by using the
keyboard's arrow keys to highlight your choice followed by pressing the
ÄÙEnter key.

Print invoices?Pref_Inv_PrtThis field has three settings:~~1. Don't ever
print invoices~2. Always print invoices~3. After maintenance (service) data is
entered, ask if an invoice should be printed.

Next invoice numberPref_Inv_NextThis field contains the next invoice number
to be used.

Tracking methodPref_Inv_TrackInventory may be tracked in one of three
ways:~~1. FIFO (First In, First Out)~2. LIFO (Last In, First Out)~3.
Averaged~~Most companies use an Averaged inventory tracking system.

Minimum quantityPref_Inv_minqThis is the minimum quantity that you want to
keep on hand. If the stock on hand reaches or goes below this level, the item
will show up on the Re-order report.

Maximum quantityPref_Inv_maxqThis is the maximum quantity that you want to
keep on hand. The purpose of this field is for use with automatic purchase
order generation (a WVH future feature). To use an example: If the minimum
quantity for a part is one (1) and the maximum is five (5), when the quantity
for the part reaches one WVH will suggest that you order four (4) units.

Default selling pricePref_Inv_SellWhen you enter maintenance for a vehicle,
the parts you enter are charged to the customer (owner, division, or dept.)
according to the Price Level you have set for them on the Data Entry,
Divisions/Owners screen. You can sell to customers at:~~û Standard price
(retail)~û Alternate/discount price 1~û Alternate/discount price 2~û
Alternate/discount price 3~û Cost plus overhead~~If yours is an internal
operation (selling to other departments) you will probably use cost plus
overhead as the default selling price.

Warn out-of-stockPref_Inv_StockIf this option is set to "Yes" then WVH will
inform you if an item is out of stock; otherwise it will simply deduct whatever
quantity you use, allowing the quantity to become negative, without any
warning.~~If you check the computer |before| locating parts, set this field to
"Yes."~~If you enter maintenance in the computer |after| locating parts, set
this field to "No."

Inventory G/L accountsPref_Inv_GLThese account numbers are used for
reporting purposes only, to help you post sales & inventory figures to your

Miscellaneous SettingsPref_MiscPreviously there had been seperate Back-up
and Country screens; now they have been merged into this one with new options
added.~~1. Back-up method determines whether or not compression software is
used for back-up copies~~2. Country determines your home country, zip code
format, etc.~~3. Directory format determines how your files will be displayed
when you use the File menu.~~4. Alert sound determines the sound WVH will make
when it encounters a problem.

Back-upPref_BackupPress the |F3| key to set this field ÄÄ a menu of choices
will appear from which you may highlight a choice & press |ÄÙEnter|~~Allows
you to set the method for backing-up your data files. Use DOS' COPY or ARJ,
LHArc, or PKZip compression software available which is in your DOS
path.~~Compression software will typically pack 2-10 times the data in the same
space so even a 360k floppy can hold megabytes of back-up data.~~|NOTES|~~Using
compression software requires more memory. Use |Help/About| to see your free
memory.~~|| ARJ 2.30 needs at least |242k| free~|| LHARC 2.13 needs at least
|189k| free~|| PKZip 1.1 needs at least |119k| free~See also the File/Backup
help for more information.

CountryPref_CountrySet the country who's standards of measurement &
expression you wish to use. This setting currently has no function in WVH. Soon
it will control the date and numerical formats.

Directory FormatPref_DirFmtPress the |F3| key to set this field ÄÄ a menu of
choices will appear from which you may highlight a choice & press
|ÄÙEnter|.~~Lists of files (on screens such as File/Open, File/Erase, etc.)
can be displayed in one of three formats:~~1. DOS file name first, followed by
size, date, and description~~2. DOS file name only~~3. Description followed by
DOS file name, size, and date.~~Files are organized alphabetically from left to
right, so option #1 will sort the list on the DOS file name whereas option #3
will sort the list according to the description.

Alert SoundPref_ErrSndPress the |F3| key to set this field ÄÄ a menu of
choices will appear from which you may highlight a choice & press
|ÄÙEnter|.~~You can specify whether you want WVH to be silent or use a tone to
alert you of errors and warnings.

PrinterPref_PtrsThis screen lets you set the printer you will be using and
the fonts for reports so that WVH can control it properly.~~|NOTES|~~You must
define a printer & fonts before you can print anything.

Setting Printer ModelPref_PtrSetYou must define the printer you will be
using so that WVH knows how to control it properly. Many printers, even
different brands, use the same control codes. If your printer is not on the
list look in your manual to find a model it emulates. Dot matrix printers are
usually Epson or IBM compatible.~~To set this field:~~|1.| Press the |F3| key
or double-click with a mouse. A window of printer choices will "pop up" on your
screen.~~|2.| Use the up/down/PgUp/PgDn keys to highlight your choice then
press ÄÙEnter.

Printer PortPref_PtrPortThis is the "channel" WVH will use to access your
printer ÄÄ LPT1, LPT2, or LPT3. If you only have one printer it is probably
connected to LPT1.

PCL Soft Font DirectoryPref_SoftDirIf you use a PCL laser printer you can
use soft fonts (fonts stored on disk which are sent to the laser printer as
needed. When you choose the |Select a Soft Font| option when setting a PCL font
you will be given the chance to specify the drive and path on which your font
files reside. Any new information you enter here will be saved as the new
default soft font directory.

Titles FontPref_TFontSelect the font you would like to use to print report
titles. Proportionally-spaced fonts work well for titles. Titles will be bold
and underlined to stand out from the body of the report, so it's okay if you
use the same font for both the titles & body of reports.~~To set this
field:~~|1.| Press the |F3| key or double-click with a mouse. A window of font
choices will "pop up" on your screen.~~|2.| Use the up/down/PgUp/PgDn keys to
highlight your choice then press ÄÙEnter.~~|3.| If the font is scalable you
will be asked to enter the size of print to use.~~|LASER PRINTER
NOTES|~~Reports are printed in portrait orientation. A soft font will have to
end in .SFP to be used for report titles.

"Normal" FontPref_NFontSelect the font you would like to use to print the
body of reports. If often looks best if you pick a fixed-pitch font, such as
"Courier 10cpi." Avoid fonts larger than 10cpi except for titles. Experiment
with different fonts to get the best results.~~To set this field:~~|1.| Press
the |F3| key or double-click on the field with a mouse. A window of font
choices will "pop up" on your screen.~~|2.| Use the up/down/PgUp/PgDn keys to
highlight your choice then press ÄÙEnter.~~|3.| If the font is scalable you
will be asked to enter the size of print you would like to use.

Lines per pagePref_LPPEnter the number of lines (maximum) you would like
printed on a page. Most printers have a total of 66 lines on an 11" long sheet
of paper except for lasers which have 60. You will probably have a top margin,
however, which will reduce the number of printable lines, and you will probably
want a bottom margin, too. For printers with 66 lines per page a setting of 55
is good. For laser printers with 60 lines per page a setting of 50 may be
better.

Left marginPref_LMThis lets you set a left margin for your reports. To shift
reports to the right enter the number of inches, between 0 and 2

Tax & LabourPref_TaxLbrThis screen lets you set:~~1. Whether or not to allow
entry of a labour rate on the Maintenance Data Entry screen~~2. Sales tax rate
(if any) for parts (but not labour)~~|NOTES|~~Set the sales tax rate as a
percentage. For example, if your sales tax rate is 6-1/4% then enter "6.25".

Allow labour...Pref_LbrThis field indicates whether you would like to enter
labour rate ($/hour) on the maintenance data entry screen and is provided to
accommodate for larger companies where the person doing data entry has nothing
to do with setting the rate charged for labour. This lets you operate several
ways:~~1. If the labour rate is fixed according to the mechanic or shop
providing the service, you can set this field to |No| and set up each service
provider with that hourly rate (on the Mechanics data entry screen).~~2. If the
labour rate varies for different types of service, you can set this field to
|No| and enter the rates on the Types of Service data entry screen.~~3. If you
want the person entering service information to be able to change the labour
rate as service information is entered, then set this field to |Yes|.

Sales TaxPref_TaxHere is where you set your sales tax rate for your area.
This can be the rate you charge your customers or the rate that you get charged
by your service centres ÄÄ it works the same either way.~~Enter fractions as
decimals:~1/2 is .5~1/4 is .25~1/8 is .125~~For other fractions just take a
calculator and punch in the division. For example, for 7-3/4% sales tax punch
in "3" divided by "4" and you'll get ".75", so 7-3/4% is 7.75% in decimal
form.~~The sales tax rate you enter is the default ÄÄ the one which will apply
to most of your entries. When you need a different tax rate (or zero tax) you
can use the F3 toggle shown at the bottom of the Maintenance Data Entry screen.
