To store the settings on the @1@Change         
Transactions@0@ panel, select the              
@1@Store...@0@ button and the @1@Store Update  
Model@0@ panel appears.                        
                                               
The @1@Ask for From.../To...@0@ buttons are    
used to cause MEGA-Check 2 to @8@prompt@0@ you 
for the From and To strings at the time you    
activate this model.  If either of these       
strings will vary each time this model is      
activated then click on one or both of these   
buttons and a small panel will appear asking   
you to enter the @8@question@0@ you want       
MEGA-Check 2 to ask you that will cause you to 
fill in appropriate From or To string at the   
time the model is activated.  Let's take a     
look at an example to clarify.                 
                                               
Every time you balance your checkbook, it is a 
good idea to put a different value in the      
@1@Cleared@0@ field to indicate @8@which@0@    
statement that transaction was cleared on.     
Most banks send out monthly statements, so a   
simple number from 1 to 12 will work fine for  
most people.  So we want to change the         
@1@Cleared@0@ field @8@from@0@ blanks (not     
entered) @8@to@0@ a number from 1 to 12,       
depending on what month it is.  The @1@From@0@ 
isn't varying, we always want to change it     
from blanks.  However, the @1@To@0@ field      
@8@will@0@ vary, so we should tell MEGA-Check  
2 to @8@prompt@0@ us for it when we activate   
the model, where we can enter the month that   
we're clearing these checks off, or, in more   
direct terms, what we want to change the       
Cleared field to.  If MEGA-Check 2 prompted us 
with a generic question like, "Enter the From  
value" it wouldn't be very helpful because we  
might not remember exactly what it is trying   
to ask us.  We need something a more context   
sensitive to balancing our checkbook like,     
"What month are you clearing checks for?" or   
even "What month is this?"                     
                                               
Then, later, when the model is activated,      
MEGA-Check 2 will present you with this panel  
with the default answer originally entered in  
the @1@To@0@ field on the @1@Change            
Transactions@0@ panel.  You can change it of   
course, and you'll need to.                    
                                               
The @1@Ask for Select Value@0@ window is used  
the same way that the @1@Ask for               
From.../To...@0@ buttons are used.  It shows   
your current selection criteria, except for    
the actual select values which are represented 
by an ellipsis ("...") because these are the   
parts that will be "customized" by your        
answers to the interactive questions.  If any  
part of the selection criteria will need to    
vary for this update, click on the portion of  
your selection criteria represented in the     
window and a small panel will appear asking    
you to enter the @8@question@0@ you want       
MEGA-Check 2 to ask you that will cause you to 
fill in the appropriate answer to customize    
the selection criteria accordingly.
