Pressing the Tab key moves the cu rsor to the right to the first
character location of the next unprotected data field. For
example, in Figure 3 (page 9), the cursor is located in the field
entitled "ADDRESS". The operator has just finished keying Red
Road, Arvada, Colorado and could now press the Tab key to
move the cu rsor qu ickly to the next field, "Date", to begin
keying in that information. I n the examples in Figure 13,
pressing the Tab key when the cursor is located at A moves the
cursor to B.
