         IMPORTANT: Help = (F1) or (H) Com/Key  (Com/Key = Command Key)
     Please Note: Com/Key is also referred to as Function Key.

          Summary of Main Menu Note: When the Menu is on screen eight of
     the Function Keys have Reserved/Expan., written after them.  These
     are for future files to help manage work.  Two functions (C) & (E)
     are programmable to access YOUR word processor and/or YOUR utility.
     A word processor is not supplied with this program, but a utility is
     if you wish to use it. Note: The Utility is PUSH BUTTON DOS. You are
     welcome to use it if you care to, there is no charge for it. Note: only
     the UTILITY PROGRAM needs 5.0 DOS or higher.

          To program (C) or (E) type (@) and follow instructions. The (E)
     must be programed to use the utility supplied with Accurate Accounting
     Time Sheet. Example: (c subdir u) programs the (E) Com/Key.  Note:
     "subdir" should be replaced with the name you used when the program was
     was installed.

          The following is the recommended sequence to follow to get started.
     From the Main Menu use the following  Com/Keys (H), (B), (L), (A). Data
     must be written in (B) ,(L) and (S) only.

    (1) -------------------- (B) Employees Name ---------------------

           From the main menu select (B) Employee Name List, type the
     names of your employees press enter, type five characters or less to
     represent their job description or craft.  Note: It is important that
     you place the supervisors name at the top of the list of employees
     they supervise, as the time sheet places a copy of the first name on
     the list at the bottom right corner of the sheet as the supervisor in
     charge.  If you wish to select a different employee as foreman, press
     Function (S) you will then be prompted for a line number, (they are
     numbered 1 thru 10) type one to select a foreman then press enter.
     You need not worry about saving this file when you finish it is
     automatically saved. You can use Social Security for ID Number.

    (2) -------------------- (L)  Data  Entry  ----------------------

           IMPORTANT: Master Charge number is five characters or less
     assigned by you, for the purpose controlling man hours charged to
     a project.  Subordinate Charge is five characters or less. It's to
     control smaller jobs within the overall project.
           Here is an example. Master Charge is assigned SM100.  To you
     SM100 can represent all Man hour costs for all Safety Related items.
     Now you assign SM101 to represent the biweekly safety meeting required
     by OSHA.  The next line Assign Master Charge as SM100 and Subordinate
     Charge as SM102 to you it equals man hours used for new employee
     orientation. example:

                        Master Subordinate Description

                        SM100 SM101 Safety Meeting Weekly

                        SM100 SM102 New Employee Orientation.

     This method will yield the best results, when viewing in the database
     file.  Note: This file saves data when you exit using (X).  But it is
     a good practice to use the save Function when you write data.  Save =
     (S).  Remember, if you use the ESC Key to exit all data written but
     not saved will be lost.  Also you MUST enter .001 Hrs. for N/S or the
     time sheet will not save that line in the export file.

    (3)--------------------- (A)  Time Sheet ------------------------

            From the main menu select
        (A) Function  Time Sheet
        (H) Function  Help.
     The commands for the header area are the first thing you will want to
     address.  They are (L), (N), (D) and  (K).

            Here is a Tip, when you write location of job using the
        (L) Function, type job location <--SPACE--> Shift (Days, Swing or
     Night).
        (D) Function  Use to enter day and date.
     If you are filling in Date and Day always write it in the
     same format.  Examples, 06-23-94 Thursday or 06-24-94 Friday.
        The recommended method is to use one of two Automatic Functions.
     They are Auto or Auto1.  Note: Auto not auto, the A must be Capitalized
     in both options. Here is the procedure, From the time Sheet and
     before you press the (S) command, Step #1 Press (D) then Enter Key
     type Auto if you wish todays date to be displayed or Auto1 to display
     yesterdays date, Step #2 Press Enter Key,  Step #3 Press (K) the Keep
     command to save, Step #4 Esc or (X) to main menu, Returning to the time
     sheet activates Auto or Auto1. The Time Sheet will always display the
     select date in the correct format.

        (N) Function, Name of Company.
        (K) Function, if header is complete USE (K). It KEEPS header data.
     If you write data the same each time, the View Function and Sort
     Function will perform perfectly. Note: Case is NOT important.

            PgDn selects the next list of Employee names, when you see the
     list you want Press (S) Function Key.
        (S) Function saves selected employees.
           There are only two commands that are not straight forward and may
     require some explaining.
        (C) Choose Specific
        (A) Add in a name an option under (C).
        (S) Save selected names in time sheet.
           The (C) function is used if you do not wish to save a list
     as shown.

           Example: Press (C) then select Line 1,2,5 and 8 to save. Now
     select (A) to add another name to the list you are asked, (what line to
     add) it to when you answer, select a line not previously selected. If you
     do not the line number chosen with the (A) Function will overwrite
     lines selected with the (C) Function.
        (S) Function  Saves name chosen and/or added.
     Now you see (Command Menu Help Menu) at the bottom of screen.
        (H) Function Help  Now is a good time to mention that any file
     that has help available will respond to the (H) Key.
        (X) or (ESC) to exit all help.

           If you exit help, the commands available (help bar) to assist
     you in making a time sheet is displayed at the top of the screen.
     Arrow up to see the commands bar at the bottom. The number at the top
     left hand side of this file is the file number. There are fifty files
     in the Data List. These are the files you accessed with the (L)
     Function from the main menu. If you recall each file has nine
     lines. Arrow down to read all nine lines.
           Now PgDn the file number at the (top left) changes. When the
     charge line you wish to use is on screen then press function (O).
        (O) Function   Hours press (O) + enter for regular hours, press
     enter. If the employee worked overtime, press (O) again other wise
     press enter a second time. Prompts will appear on screen type
     appropriate line to write, then press enter. If you are going to
     assign the same hours to more than one employee do it now. This
     is accomplished most efficiently with the (A) Function.
        (A) Function  Automatic.  Type line number and press enter.
     If you are assigning the same hours to more than one employee, use
     the automatic function.
        (F) Function Fix an error. IMPORTANT:  If you slip and use a
     charge that is incorrect then (before you do anything else), Press
     Function (F).
       (M) Function  Move a data line to a different employee.
     If you wrote to an incorrect location use (M) Function to Move Line.
