FHSWIN - Entering Family Information
Use Main Menu option "File/Update Family Information" to Enter/Update information in a Family File. The following FHSWUPDT form will be displayed.
To actually show the FORM for Entering/Updating information in a Family File record, you must first identify which record you will be working with. Of course, if this is the First name record going into the file, you should click the "Add Name" button, but first let's see how else we could select an existing name record.
If you know the ID number (sequence number of the Name record in the Family File) you can just type it in the "ID:" box and click the "Show" button. There is also the "<" button described in the Introduction. Clicking on it will open the "Name List Form" and clicking on one of those names will cause that name record to be displayed. You can also use the "<-" and "->" buttons to go backward and forward through the ID numbers in the records in the name list, then click the "Show" button when the desired ID number is visible.
Now let's see what clicking on the "Add Name" button will do.
