**************************** FORM Executor Help ******************************

The form executor is  used to fill  in forms and/or to  print them.   Actually
filling in and printing are optional.  You  can print to your printer or to  a
file if your printer is unavailable.  The form field inputs you have typed can
be saved to a file.  Likewise, you can load the input fields on your form from
a file.   This is handy  for complicated forms  with many input  fields or  to
review how previous forms such as invoices were filled out.  The form executor
also handles such  features as  word wrap,  field justify,  look-up, and  math
operations.

Your form appear on lines 2 through 25  of your display.  The special  printer
control characters will not be visible.   Automatic form date, numbering,  and
time will have updated your form if you included these options while  editing.
The first line will display 'EXEC:' followed  by the form name and the  cursor
position.  An 'Insert Mode' will appear on the first line if you are in insert
mode meaning characters will be inserted at the cursor as you type instead  of
replacing existing ones.

Functions:

ESC - Exit Form Execute:  Terminates  form execution.  Two consecutive  pushes
      of this key are required.

F1  - Help:  Displays on-screen help.  Basic help information is shown  first.
      Pressing F1 a second time will provide detailed generic help.   Pressing
      F2 instead will cause  Form Master to display  the file having the  same
      name as the  form but with  a '.HLP' extension.   Thus you  can build  a
      custom help file for  your form.   The 'Printer' form  has its own  help
      file which is PRINTER.HLP.   Pressing any other  key after the first  F1
      push will resume the form executor.

      NOTE:  If the  function keys have been  re-defined, the generic help  is
      not available.   Pressing  F1  a second  time  will display  the  form's
      customized help file instead (if it exists).

F2  - Restore Form:  Restores the form back  to where it was when you  started
      the form executor, ready to  be filled in.   The only difference is  the
      form number will have been incremented if you had printed the form,  and
      you will have a new  date and time if  these are automatically fill  in.
      Two consecutive pushes of this key are required.

F4  - Field Look-up:   Those fields  defined for  look up  will be  processed.
      Their field contents will  be compared against look  up files.  In  each
      case one or  more fields  may be  replaced with  information from  these
      files.  Two consecutive pushes of this key are required.

      F4 processes all look-up fields  in your form in  one step.  To  look-up
      the field that the cursor is currently in, use Alt-F.

F5  - Temporarily Go To DOS:  Executes a DOS shell and you will receive a  DOS
      prompt.  A second  press of F10  is required.  Use  this to execute  DOS
      functions such as  DIR, TYPE,  COPY, etc.,  or even  to execute  another
      program.  To return to the form executor enter EXIT at a DOS prompt.

F6  - Math Operations:    Performs  math  operations  on  numbers  taken  from
      specified fields.  Results can be placed  into one or more fields.   Two
      consecutive pushes of this key are required.

F7  - Load fields from  an edit file:   All the  fields on your  form will  be
      filled in using lines from a file  of your choice.  When loading  fields
      from a file, each line from the file  will be used to fill in one  field
      on the form.  If a  field is longer than the  line used to fill it,  the
      field is blank filled  at the end.  Fields are filled  until the end  of
      file is reached or  when all the  fields are filled.   This function  is
      used to re-load entries saved earlier with F8.

      After pressing F7,  a "Load fields"  pop-up menu will  appear.  Enter  a
      file name and press F1 to continue.

      To load the form fields again, press F7.  The "Load fields" pop-up  menu
      will now show a new  option.  You can then  use F10 to continue  reading
      from the current  load file;   or you can  specify a new  load file  and
      press F1.  (Alt-L performs the  same function as the F7-F10  combination
      in one step.)

F8  - Save fields to an edit  file:  Saves your  form's fields for later  use.
      When saving the fields to a file, the contents of each form input  field
      will be used  in order to  fill the lines  of the edit  file.  Use  this
      option to save your  form entries if  you would like  to use them  again
      (F7) or to make a record of what you typed.

      After pressing F6,  a "Save fields"  pop-up menu will  appear.  Enter  a
      file name and  press F1 to  continue.   Form Master will  check for  the
      existence of this file.   If it is a new  file, you will be prompted  to
      press F8 to create it.  If the file exists, a pop-up menu will allow you
      to append (add to the end) to the file or replace it.

      To save the form fields again, press F8.  The "Save fields" pop-up  menu
      will now show  a new  option.  You  can then  use F10 to  append to  the
      current save file;   or you can specify  a new save  file and press  F1.
      (Alt-S performs  the same  function  as the  F8-F10 combination  in  one
      step.)

F9  - Print to a file:   A "Print to a file"  pop-up menu will appear  showing
      the current printer configuration.  To continue enter a file name.   You
      can also change  the default  number of copies  to print  that has  been
      defined for the form.   Press F9  again.  You will  then be prompted  to
      press F9  a third  time to  create  the file  or replace  it,  whichever
      applies.

      Printing to a file is useful if your printer is currently not available.
      The file that  is written will  contain the   same characters  including
      printer configuring escape sequences which  would normally have gone  to
      your printer if you had used F10.  To send the contents of this file  to
      your printer, use the DOS copy command (i.e., COPY filename PRN).

F10 - Print to your printer:  A  "Print form" pop-up menu will appear  showing
      the current printer configuration.  You can change the default number of
      copies to print at this point.  To continue, press F10 again.  Forms are
      printed to the standard printer device - PRN.

NOTE:  The form sequence  number is incremented by one each time  the form  is
printed.
