Saving and Merging Shows
Often you will want to store your show onto floppy disk. In addition, you may want to merge old
programming from earlier shows into your current shows. Or, if you have been programming a show with a

you will lose all of its programming.
To load a different show from floppy, insert the show disk and press
Load Show
. The console will ask
you to confirm that it is
okay
to lose the current show. Then a progress window will open that lists each
