Tips for name entry

Database characteristics
If you use the "keyboard" the previously entered characters are compared with
all database entries. You can only select valid characters (highlighted) now. If
there is a unique entry in the database, the system completes the name
automatically.
If there is more than one database entry with the same name, the cursor is
automatically placed on the list icon . Select the desired entry from the list. If
the number of data entries is very large, setting up the list may take a few
seconds.
Database entries which are not unique are distinguished by additional
information. If for example a road name is not unique in the city entered
before, a list of all district names referring to this road is presented.
Different ways of data entry
When entering city or road names with more than one word the database
allows you to start your entry with any part of the name.
If for example you want to enter "5 NORTH BEVERLY DRIVE" you can start
data entry with each of the name contents, for example "DRIVE" or "NORTH".
