F4 Next Field        Cursor keys    Esc Abandon

Short Name - This field is used to hold the name of the user
        mode.  This is a unique identifier for the user mode and
        the global options associated to it.  This field cannot
        be modified.

Description - This field holds the  name of this user mode.  This
        is the name that will be shown whenever a user mode is
        asked for and a correct Short Name is entered.  This
        field can be modified to reflect a new name.


Starting Menu - This field holds the Short Name of the menu that
        will be presented first to users who belong to this user
        mode when they enter the application.  For all intents
        and purposes, this is the main menu for this user mode.
        Returning from this menu will exit the system after
        confirming that exiting is the desired operation.  Press
        F6 to obtain a pop up window off all menus.


Verify # of Records before Reports - This field is used to
        indicate that the number of records should be displayed
        and the end user prompted before reports are printed.
        The end user may decide to continue or not.  Selecting
        "No" at this option will cause the system to go ahead and
        print without pausing to verify number of records.

Allow Print to Disk & Screen Option - This field is used to
        indicate if the user mode will be prompted with the extra
        options of printing to the disk or to the screen.
        Printing to the disk will place the file, with the report
        short name, in the user's personal directory ($$persdir).
        Printing to the screen will allow for the user to view
        the report on the screen as opposed to waiting for a disk
        print out.  Selecting "No" at this prompt will instruct
        SmartWare to print directly to the printer.  A "Yes" will
        instruct the system to prompt for the desired output
        destination (Disk, Screen, Printer).  This option is only
        considered when printing through the Custom Report option
        of SmartWare.

If the GLOBAL option is chosen from within any module except the
Database an error message will be displayed.  If this is the desired
option, then return to a menu that loads the Database module and
select the option to perform the required tasks.
