Wizard - Introduction

You can use Wizards, instead of some file maintenance programs, to quickly and easily maintain the data.  The Wizards guide you through each step of data entry in an organized manner.  They also provide the flexibility to skip around among the steps.  The topics in the table below describe the general aspects of a Wizard, including the Control Menu, the four areas within a Wizard window, and how to navigate within a Wizard.
