<5> Print Your Tagged Information To Loacl Printer

To use this selection you will need two things.  First you will need to
have some information tagged from Main Menu selection 3.  Secondly you
will need to have a DOS printer configured for your system.

The information file will be named Censtor1.Txt  It is a straight ASKII
file and may be  viewed by using the dos type command, or printed by
selecting Option < 2> From The Menu.

Option 2 from the Print Menu allows you to erase the Tagged Information
File once it is printed.  A good idea in case you or someone else wants
to tag some information and print it.  If you do not erase this file
then the next information you tag will be appended to it.

Option < 3 > Returns you to the Main Menu.
