Detailed information on each of the items in the
[File]
menu is listed in this section.
Items that have an equivalent toolbar shortcut, display the icon of the tool bar next to the
section title.
Multiple files can be selected using many of the [File] menu options. Specifically, when
selecting a *.dat file to generate a report or selecting a *.rtf or *.tpl file to edit a report or
report template. Use the Shift and arrow keys to highlight the desired files within the
Windows file selection tool when making a multi-file selection. The function that
generated the file selection will act on all files selected. For example, generating reports
starts with the selection of *.dat files. Selecting, several *.dat files in the file box
generates a separate report for each file selected. It is a short cut to selecting each file
one at a time.

toolbar shortcut to save the file.

section, a single or multiple Data Files can be selected. The
COMPASS
Report
Editor merges the selected Data File(s) with the current template to generate the
report(s). All formatting characteristics of the field key that are present in the
report template are maintained during report generation. The final report is
automatically saved and loaded into the report Editor. At this point the report file
can be acted on like any other document within the report Editor.
Prior to using this option, make sure the desired report template is selected
by noting the name of the file on the bottom status bar’s <Current
Template> field. If no template displays or you wish to change the template,
use [Format], [Select Template]
to select the desired template (see Section
