APPENDIX VII

Hot Keys and Short Cuts

The section provides hot keys and short cuts that can be used in halFILE for Windows. Many of these are inherent to Windows and can be used, not only in halFILE, but in any Windows program. These are listed under the function of "Windows." Other hot keys are unique to halFILE and are listed in the part of the program where it is applicable.

Standard Windows Hot Keys:

Feature Hot Key 'Description'
Windows CTRL-Z Undo hot key. Can be used to \’undo\’ the last key strokes that were performed.
Windows CTRL-C Copy. Copies the highlighted text to the Windows clipboard so it can be used in a \’paste\’ function later.
Windows CTRL-X Cuts. Cuts (erases) the highlighted text to the Windows clipboard so it can be used in a \’paste\’ function later.
Windows CTRL-V Paste. Pastes the contents of the Windows clipboard into the box where the cursor is.
Windows ALT- If a menu selection has a letter underlined, then you can activate that menu by pressing ALT + the letter underlined. For instance, at the main menu of halFILE, the "File" has the letter F underlined. Therefore, pressing Alt-F activates the File menu.
Windows TAB Moves the cursor to the next control on a screen or form. Examples of controls include a button, a list box and a text box. On the search criteria screen, for example, you can TAB down from field to field until you get to the field you want to search on.
Windows SHIFT-TAB Moves the cursor to the prior control on a screen or form. On the index form, for example, if you notice something was mis-keyed and want to go up to the box containing the incorrect data, you can press SHIFT-TAB until you get there.
