I would find it very useful if Adagio provided a summary of "Hidden Shorcut Keys".

For those of us used to DOS data entry, it would be very helpful. Discovery is a slow way to uncover them.

Thanks.

Hello Bal

The easiest method to find the 'shortcut' keys that are specific to Adagio is to look for any Option that has an under-lined letter in it's name.

For example, in all Adagio modules to access the File menu - you would press Alt-F, as the F in File is under-lined.

Pressing Alt and any of the underlined characters in a menu option will open that sub-menu, from there all you have to do is press the underlined character only.

E.g. Pressing Alt-F-G Will open the Group Setup option from the main File menu.

Additionally, there are keyboard shortcuts to take you directly to a specific screen, as identified by the underline on the screen's tab name. Use the Alt key and the character to go to the desired screen For example, Alt-H takes you to the Header screen, Alt-A for Details, Alt-B for Bill to/Ship To, and Alt-T for Totals.

If you press Ctl-Tab, you move one screen to the right. Ctl-Shift-Tab takes you one screen to the left.

We've tried to design Adagio so that you never have to use the mouse, though of course in a Windows application, the necessary keyboard shortcuts aren't always obvious.

Does this help your data entry? Actually, there should be no place in Adagio where your hands have to leave the keyboard while doing data entry.

Regards!

P.S.

Check out the Adagio Fundamentals Guide, Chapter 5. This chapter is dedicated specifically to Keyboard Commands for Adagio.

Thanks very much. I hadn't paid much attention to the Fundamentals guide yet. I use the mudule specific guides more.
