  General -- Find record(s)
Presents a pop-up window containing rLIST field names used in defining
conditions for the retrieval of rLIST table records for viewing and editing.
Once a field has been selected, another window with applicable comparison
operators for the field is displayed.  Comparison operators that have two
trailing periods (e.g., Equal to..) will present a dialog window for data to be
entered and used by the chosen comparison operator.  Find is not case sensitive
on data supplied to comparison operators.

Wildcard characters can be used in data supplied to the 'Equal to' and 'Not
equal to' comparison operators.  Wildcard characters are the asterisk (*) and
the question mark (?).  These wildcards employ similar functionality as their
MS-DOS counterparts.  The asterisk is used to designate that all remaining
characters in the field are valid.  The question mark is used in place of a
single character to designate that any character found in its place is valid.

The search criteria can be expanded or narrowed using logical connectors.  After
the first condition is defined, a pop-up window with the following selections
appears: AND, AND NOT, OR, OR NOT, (Done).



            @7[Next screen]       @-1[Previous screen]       @0[Exit Help <Esc>]
.7
  General -- Find record(s) (continued)
These logical connectors may be used up to three times to group four separate
conditions together.  The final search criteria is evaluated from left to right.
If the last logical connector is AND and the last condition uses the "Equal to"
operator on an indexed (key) column, the index is used and will invoke a very
rapid search and retrieval of the rLIST table's records.

If Find is unsuccessful, the specified search criteria is displayed with the
message 'No record(s) found for this criteria' and the current Where clause
remains in effect.

Upon a successful Find, rLIST will:

	» Save all changes made to the current record
	» Retrieve and display the initial record found for the new @15[Where clause]
	» Sort the found records according to the @16[Sort clause]
      (Sort order is defined in @26[cOnfiguration file])
    » Reset the @34[Record Counter]'s current record number to one (1) and total
	  record number to the total number of records found for the new Where
	  clause
    » Reset the @13[Record Queue] to one (1)

  General -- Delete record
Delete the currently displayed rLIST record (and associated NotePad) from the
rLIST table and remove its reference from the Record Queue.

CAUTION: Once a record is deleted, it cannot be restored.

.9
  General -- Add record
Use to add a new record to the rLIST table.

Data that is entered into newly added records does not have to satisfy the
conditions of the current Where clause and these records are not automatically
sorted according to the current Sort clause.  Instead, each new record is placed
in front of the current record and its reference is added to the Record Queue.

Added records become available for viewing and editing provided they satisfy the
conditions of the new Where clause established by a successful Find.  These
records will then be sorted in the order specified by the current Sort clause.

  General -- Phone call
Position the cursor on a phone field and select Phone call under General of the
pull-down Menu <F10> or press <F6> if rLIST is the active window to dial the
phone number through a modem.  The mouse can also be used to dial a phone number
by double-clicking the left mouse button on a phone field.

If the current field is not a phone field and there is only one phone number
that exists, Phone call will automatically dial that phone number or, if more
than one phone number exists, a pop-up window will prompt for which phone number
to dial.

Upon dialing, the available options are:

 ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

  View -- Record Queue <Alt-F10>
rLIST has an internal memory buffer large enough to keep a list of references to
approximately three thousand records from the rLIST table at any one time.  This
list of references is known as the Record Queue.

The Record Queue is reset to one (1) upon each successful Find.  It is then
incremented by one (1) each time a record is retrieved from the rLIST table with
Next record or a new record is added to the rLIST table with Add record.  Press
<Alt-F10> to invoke a pop-up window that displays the number of available
(unused) references in the Record Queue.

If the Record Queue should become full, a pop-up window will display the message
"Record Queue is full!."  In this event, the following two rLIST functions will
NOT be available:

	» Add record will NOT add a new record.

	» Next record will only retrieve records that have been previously retrieved
	  from the rLIST table.  No new records will be retrieved from the rLIST
	  table even though there may be records available that would normally be
	  retrieved based on the Where clause.

  View -- Record Queue <Alt-F10> (continued)
Invoking a successful Find will free the Record Queue and allow these two
functions to work normally.  This may also necessitate the need to plan a
strategy for narrowing the search criteria when issuing Find so that fewer
number of records are retrieved for editing.

.15
  View -- Where clause <F11>
Displays the current search criteria in a pop-up window. Records are retrieved
from the rLIST table by Next record according to the search criteria that is
defined via Find.  Two-letter abbreviations for several comparison operators are
used in the Where clause:

    EQ - Equal to..                    Count GT 0 - Access to all records.
    NE - Not equal to..                             This is the default on
    GT - Greater than..                             program startup.
    GE - Greater than or equal to..
    LT - Less than..
    LE - Less than or equal to..


The following two rLIST fields display different formats in the Where clause
when used with a comparison operator that requires data:

	Field     Value
    ───────────────────────────────────
	Timefld - twenty-four hour time
	Timer   - number of elapsed seconds

mouse-click to remove the pop-up window from the display screen.  Records that
are retrieved from the rLIST table are sorted according to the Sort clause that
is defined via cOnfiguration file.

Note: Added records are not automatically sorted according to the current Sort
clause.  Instead, each new record is placed in front of the current record and
its reference is added to the Record Queue.  Upon each successful Find, Added
records become available for viewing and editing provided they satisfy the
conditions of the new @15[Where clause] established by Find.  These records will
then be sorted in the order specified by the Sort clause.

automatically executed by @28[keystroke Playback].

First, a dialog window is displayed for entering the drive, path and file name
of the playback file being created.  If the drive and path are omitted, the
playback file will be created in the default directory.  The use of a common
file name extension, e.g., MAC, PLY or KEY, is recommended since this practice
can provide for easier file maintenance under DOS.  Upon pressing <Enter>,
keystroke Record is engaged and all keystrokes and mouse events are then
recorded in the playback file until <Ctrl-R> is pressed.

Keystroke Record writes keystrokes to the designated file as ASCII characters.
This file may be edited with an ASCII text editor to include the following
special command:

{PROMPT} - suspends keystroke Playback until a key is pressed.

  Options -- keystroke Playback  <Ctrl-P>
Invoke a playback (macro) file that has been created by keystroke Record.
Playback files are used to automate repetitive tasks such as typing the same
text repeatedly or invoking a series of function key commands that are used
frequently.  A playback file consists of a series of keystrokes, mouse events
and special commands that are recorded in the exact sequence in which they are
performed during @27[keystroke Record] and can then be automatically executed by
keystroke Playback.

  Programs -- R:BASE  <Alt-1>
Use to invoke R:BASE or Personal R:BASE from within rLIST.  R:BASE or Personal
R:BASE will be invoked providing that the program files for one or the other
resides in the current directory or is contained in a directory that is listed
in the PATH environment variable.  The entire resource of the respective program
is available with this option.  Ad hoc reports and queries on data residing in
rLIST tables can be done using R:BASE or Personal R:BASE, as well as the
creation of new R:BASE databases for the inclusion of new rLIST tables.

The environment variable RLISTRB may be used to define a path specification for
the execution of R:BASE or Personal R:BASE.  Use the full path name in naming
(e.g., SET RLISTRB=C:\RBPERSL\RBASE.EXE).  Note that there are no spaces between
the '=' mark.  When defined, this environment variable will take precedence over
the default directory or the path environment variable.

  Programs -- WordPerfect  <Alt-2>
Use to invoke WordPerfect from within rLIST.  WordPerfect will be invoked
providing that the WordPerfect program files are in the current directory or
contained in a directory that is listed in the PATH environment variable.  The
entire resource of WordPerfect is available with this option.  As rLIST
generates WordPerfect secondary files automatically, these secondary files can
be merged together with primary files for the creation of mail merge letters,
envelopes, labels, etc.

The environment variable RLISTWP may be used to define a path specification for
the execution of WordPerfect.  Use the full path name in naming (e.g., SET
RLISTWP=C:\WP51\WP.EXE).  Note that there are no spaces between the '=' mark.
When defined, this environment variable will take precedence over the default
directory or path environment variable.

  Record Counter -> #### of ####
The Record Counter exists in the top right-hand corner of the rLIST window,
directly above the First name field.  Its function is to display the current
record number and the total number of records found for the Where clause plus
the number of Added records.  Added records are those records that have been
added since the most recent Find.  The following is an example:

	345 of 1025

	which could be interpreted as:

	345 is the current record number of 1000 total records
	found for the Where clause plus 25 Added records

  Column Indexes
There is no facility within rLIST for creating or deleting indexes (keys) on
rLIST table columns.  The creation or deletion of indexes can be accomplished
with R:BASE or Personal R:BASE.  INDEXR.EXE, which is shipped with Microrim's
R:SCOPE database diagnostic program, also creates indexes on specified columns.

  Database Pack
When an rLIST table record is deleted, the disk space formerly occupied by the
deleted record is not reused by rLIST.  As more records are deleted, this unused
space accumulates.  To recapture this disk space, it is necessary to PACK the
R:BASE database from time to time.  This can be done using R:BASE or Personal
R:BASE with the PACK or RELOAD commands or with SEPACK, a utility provided with
the registered version of rLIST, at the DOS prompt.  Be sure to have a backup
copy of the database before starting the procedure.  PACK must NOT be
interrupted while in operation.

To PACK an R:BASE database using SEPACK, issue the following command at the DOS
prompt:

	SEPACK {drive:\path\}dbname {Owner}

	where dbname is the name of the R:BASE database
	you wish to PACK

NOTE: PUBLIC is the default Owner password for R:BASE databases created by
R:BASE versions 3.x and greater.  PUBLIC is the Owner password for the CONTACT
database supplied with rLIST.
