The information below provides a brief explanation of each 
of the areas within the BETARPT program.

   a. By pressing the 'F2' key you are asked to provide bug 
information about the application you are presently testing. 
You are asked to be very specific so we may use this 
information to attempt to reproduce the bug.

   b. The 'F3' key will gain useful information about the 
system you are using to test the beta application. Please 
fill out all lines as accurately as possible.

   c. To describe the bug problem press 'F4'. Please be 
in-depth while being brief.

   d. The 'F5' key is used to tell us what actions you took 
to attempt to correct the noted bug. This includes but is not 
limited to removing the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files.

   e. A DOS shell is provided by pressing the 'F6' key.

   f. The 'F7' is provided so you may included specific 
recommendations for future releases of the product.

   g. The 'F8' key will ask for specific information about a 
certain application you are testing. This may or may not be 
used depending upon the needs of the developer.

   h. Pressing 'F9' will save all current files and exit to 
DOS. This is useful when you wish to research a particular 
bug more thoroughly and do not wish to create a new bug 
report.

   i. To create a report press the 'F10' key. Once you have 
created a report, the Beta Report program will create a file 
called BETA.RPT. The BETA.RPT file will contain both the 
report that you just created and the status of your machine 
at the time you wrote the report. This is the file that we 
need to have uploaded to us. Once you have written your 
second report, the report program will rename your first 
report to BETA.1. The same situation will happen for your 
third report, where BETA.RPT will be renamed to BETA.2, etc. 
The most current report will always be named BETA.RPT.
