HP ALLBASE/BRW Reference Manual

At a Glance 

If you are just learning HP ALLBASE/BRW and have not used another report
writing system or other Hewlett-Packard database management product, this
chapter can help you communicate with HP ALLBASE/BRW.


NOTE  Information in this chapter assumes that you are using HP
      ALLBASE/BRW from an MPE XL terminal and are using a standard
      terminal keyboard.

      If you are using another keyboard or if you access the MPE XL
      system over a network from another system, you may need to make
      some adjustments.  For instance, on a PC keyboard, the Return key
      may be marked Enter.  You should not assume that this is equivalent
      to the terminal Enter key.  If the PC keyboard has a keypad with
      another Enter key, that will probably be the equivalent to the
      terminal Enter key.

      It is up to you to use the proper keyboard for optimum success.
