Interacting with the Backup Utility
You interact with the Backup Utility in the same manner as you do with the rest of the ACD system - you
can use the keyboard or the mouse, or a mixture of both.
When you move the mouse around the mouse mat a block will move over the screen. This is the mouse
cursor. To select a menu option for example, you would position the mouse cursor over the option you
wish to use and then click the Left mouse button.
To use the keyoard you can move the highlight bar along the menu by pressing the Left or Right Arrow
keys to highlight the option you wish to use, and then press the Enter key to activate it, or you can just
press the letter which is highlighted in yellow for each option. So, to access the File Type menu
option,you could just press the F key on the keyboard.
Some menu options lead to other, smaller menus, like the Help option or the Quit option.
To leave a sub-menu like these and to return to the previous menu, you can either press the Escape key,
or, with the mouse cursor positioned on the menu line, press the right mouse button.
