The List Converter Control Keys
-------------------------------

The following control keys are available while using List Converter:

=============================================================================
Control Key         Description
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<Alt><L>            This key combination will load a sample file list and
                    display the file list's first line in List Converter's
                    file list display line.

<Down Arrow>        Displays the next line in the sample file list.

<Up Arrow>          Displays the previous line in the sample file list.

<Left Arrow>        Moves the template line's cursor to the next character
                    position.

<Right Arrow>       Moves the template line's cursor to the previous
                    character position.

<Pg Dn>             Displays the next template.

<Pg Up>             Displays the previous template.

<Alt><S>            This key combination saves the revised templates. List
                    Converter will prompt you to name the "User Defined"
                    template. If you do not want to save the "User Defined"
                    template, just leave the name blank and List. Converter
                    won't bother to save it.

<F>                 Sets the starting position for the file's name in the
                    file list template.

<L>                 Sets the starting and ending positions for the file's
                    length in the file list template. Because the file length
                    can be a variable length field, pressing <L> the first
                    time will only mark the starting position for the file
                    length. Once you have marked the file length's starting
                    position, move the template line's cursor to the right
                    and press <L> again to define the file length's ending
                    position.

<D>                 Sets the starting position for the file's date in the
                    file list template. You should note that List
                    Converter can work with dates using either the MM-DD-YY
                    or YYMMDD formats. MM-DD-YY is the default format.  You
                    can toggle this to the YYMMDD format, by leaving the
                    template line's cursor in the date's first position and
                    pressing <D> again.

<X>                 Sets the starting position for the file's description.
                    List Converter assumes that the description's ending
                    position is the end of the line.

<Alt><X>            This key combination starts the conversion process.
                    List Converter will ask you to enter the file name for
                    the file list(s) to be converted. You can use DOS wild
                    card characters to specify multiple files in a single
                    directory.  List Converter will then ask you to enter
                    the name of the directory that you want the converted
                    file list(s) to be placed in. Please note that List
                    Converter will use the original file list's name for
                    the converted file list; therefore, you should not
                    specify the same directory where the original file
                    list(s) are located.
