 |
| Form key-entry through a browser, such as in Web-Link, has more constraints than form key-entry in a PC application like ADM. If you are used to entering forms in ADM, you will have to learn to adjust to somewhat different key strokes to move around Web-Link form entry pages. |
|
| CAUTION: |
|
| Response time after a key stroke in a browser is noticeably longer than response time on a PC. You will have to be patient when entering data into Web-Link. When entering responses from a paper form, pause at the end of each browser page. Allow the next page to be displayed before entering values for items found on the page yet to be displayed. You will lose data if you "type ahead". |
|
| RECOMMENDED KEYS & ACTIONS |
|
| a) |
TAB = moves to the next item with no change. TAB order in Web-Link is left to right on the page rather than the top to bottom order you may be used to in ADM. |
|
| b) |
SHIFT-TAB = moves to the previous item with no change. |
|
| c) |
0-9 = direct entry of ratings from the paper form |
