[Alt]+F1 - F10  Used for drawing special characters in Edit Mode

        The following keys are used in Edit Mode Only:

[Ins]   Toggles insert mode on and off.  Default is off.  In insert mode cursor
        grows bigger.  Typing in default mode replaces text.  Typing in insert
        mode moves text over one character at a time.  Characters beyond
        35th position are lost in insert mode.

Right Arrow Moves one character to the right.  Will not move beyond 35 characters.
Left Arrow  Moves one character to the left.  Stops at position 1.

[Tab]   Tab stops are set at every 5 positions.  In overtype mode, which is the
        default the tab does not move the text, only the cursor.  In insert mode,
        the tab WILL MOVE TEXT over 5 positions and will drop positions 30-35.
[Shift]+[Tab]   Moves the cursor back 5 positions

Down Arrow Moves one line down. Will also move from last line in one record to first line 
        in next record. Maintains cursor position in current column

        in previous record. Maintains cursor position in current column

[Enter] Moves one line down. Will also move from last line in one record to
        first line in next record.  Returns cursor position to #1 column

[Home]  Moves cursor to column 1 on same line. To move the cursor to the first line,                            column 1 from any position in a record, hit [Esc] twice.
[End]   Moves cursor to the far right current text position.

[PgDn]  Moves record position to the next record.

[Ctrl]+[Home]Selects the first record.

 is synonymous with "field"}

[Alt]+[Del]Deletes the current line and moves remaining lines up one position.

[Ctrl]+Y Deletes contents of the current line but does not move remaining
        lines up one position.

[Alt]+[Ins] Inserts a blank line and moves current lines down one position.

[Alt]+O Copy the contents of the marked record from the data buffer
        into the current record ( output buffer )  This replaces any
        data which had been in the record.

[Alt]+O If no record current exists in the data buffer this command
        will clear the contents of the current record.  It simply pastes
        a blank record on top of any data which happens to be there.

[Alt]+M In Edit Mode opens a four line by twenty character Memo window.
        Also serves to close the same window if it is open, the contents
        of the window will be retained even though the window closes.
        [Esc] will also close the memo window (F11 is alternative option)

[Alt]+V In Edit Mode opens the memo window to allow viewing during editing
        and scrolling from main edit window.  Alt+V will also close the
        memo window and prevent viewing from normal editing sessions.

[Alt]+= Calculates the value of an expression which has been entered on
        the currently edited line.  Displays that value in the message box.

[Alt]+A Accumulates the contents of the evaluated expression into the cursor
        position of the currently edit line.  Shifts the rest of the line
        over to allow room.
