A Word About Windows NT
The Lightning system runs in the Windows
™
NT environment. This guide
assumes that you are comfortable with standard Windows-based proce-
dures, such as using Dialog Boxes. These procedures will not be discussed
in this guide. If you are not familiar with Windows NT, refer to your
Windows NT User’s Guide or to one of the many third-party books on the
subject.
