@3The Phone Number Database@1
  In the Phone Selection Menu you are actually seeing a high level view
  of a database of communications information.	Each line in the display
  represents one record of this database.  You may have up to 32,000
  records in the database, though this would not be practical for many
  reasons.  However, a database of several hundred numbers is perfectly
  reasonable if you have a need for that many.

  Each record in the database has a @5RecId@1 (a Record Identifier) which may
  be a maximum of 8 characters in length.  The RecId is used when writing
  "scripts" which describe what numbers to call and when.  Each record also
  has a @5Description@1 in which a longer description of the record may be
  placed.  And each record may have a @5Phone Number@1 which is used when
  you are ready to dial a number.  The Phone Selection menu also displays
  the @5RecNum@1 (Record Number) so you know where you are in the Phone Number
  Database.@

@3Adding Records@1
  To add a record to the database, press the @N key.  You will be presented
  with a Communications Parameters display, which is a detailed display of
  your new record in the database.  It will be filled in with the default
  values from record 0 of the database.  With this display you can fill
  in the RecId, Description, and Phone Number fields, and change any other
  fields as needed.  Note that filling of these fields is purely optional,
  and is done so you can more easily find the information again later.

@3Deleting Records@1
  To delete a record in the database, position the cursor at the @5RecNum@1 you
  want to delete, and press the @D key.  You will then see a message
  that asks you if you really want to do this, and if you press the 'Y' key
  the record will be deleted.  Press the 'N' key and the Database will be
  left unchanged.  Note that when you delete a record, the Database will not
  get any smaller.  An empty hole will be left in the database where the
  record used to be.  To make the database smaller, you must 'sort' it.@

@3Sorting Records@1
  Press the @O key to sort records in the database.  You may sort either by
  the @5RecId@1, the @5Description@1, or the @5Phone Number@1.__When you first press
  @O you will see a message asking you to enter an 'I' to sort by Id, a 'D'
  to sort by Description, or a 'P' to sort by Phone Number.  After you answer
  you will be asked if you want to sort in Ascending ('A') or Descending ('D')
  order.  Once you press the appropriate key the sort will begin.  If the
  database is very large, this could take several minutes.  Also, you must
  have enough space in the current disk drive for two copies of the database,
  since the sort creates a new version of the database and then deletes the
  old one and renames the new one (this is much safer in case you have a
  machine failure during the sort).@

@3Dialing Numbers@1
  To dial a number, position the cursor next to the record you want, and
  press 'D'.  This will set the communications parameters as given in that
  record, present you with a communications screen, and dial the number.

@3Answering@1
  If you wish another computer to be able to call your computer, position
  the cursor next to a record that has the proper communications parameters
  and press 'A'.  You will be presented with a communications screen waiting
  for a connection.

@3Direct Connect@1
  If you are directly connected to another computer (i.e. not through a modem),
  position the cursor next to a record that has the proper communications
  parameters and press 'C'.  You will be presented with a communications
  screen connected.@

@3Show More/Editing@1
  If you merely wish to "See More" information about a record, or possibly
  want to change information, position the cursor next to the desired record
  and press 'S'.  This will present you with the Communications Parameters
  Menu.

@3Editing Defaults@1
  You may see/change the default communications parameters by placing the
  cursor at record 0 and pressing 'S'.  These defaults are used whenever
  you add a new record with the @N key.@.
