Most programming is done using drop-down boxes that allow the
user to select from a list of possible choices for the field.
First, select the field with the TAB key. A drop-down list showing the
available options opens immediately below the selected field. Be
careful not to confuse this drop-down list with other fields below the
selected one—they look similar. Use the UP and DOWN arrow
softkeys to select the desired value for the field. When finished, press
TAB to move to the next field.
Figure 4-2 below shows a drop-down entry box, with the GrphColor
(Graph Color) field selected and ready for choosing the desired color
using the UP and DOWN arrow softkeys.
