Section 5.1 - People Module
Button Bar

People Module Button Bar - As you've probably
noticed, each module has its own unique button bar. Some
elements are similar among all of the button bars, but there
are distinct differences as well, to accommodate the unique
features in each module. Following are the functions of the
buttons in the People module's button bar:
  
|
Navigation
buttons - Click the left arrow to go to the
previous record, and the right arrow to go to the
next record in the People module. Click the blue
ball to go to a particular record by number. When
clicking this button, the user will be presented
with a dialog box that asks which record the user
would like to view.
|
 
|
Find
buttons - Click the magnifying glass, or the
Find Records button, to locate a particular record.
Find criteria may be entered into any data entry
field on the People screen. After find criteria has
been entered, click the Find Records button again
to perform the find. Click the All button to show
all records in the People module.
There are many advanced options for finding
records, the extent of which will not be covered in
this manual. For more on Find mode, see your
FileMaker Pro documentation, or do a search at
www.filemaker.com.
Searches in the Calendar Solution will generally be
simple, and will likely not require advanced find
options.
Important
Note: A common mistake users make is to attempt
to enter new records in a module while in Find
mode. You can verify that you are not in Find mode
by looking at the very edges of any screen in the
Calendar Solution. If the edges are colored (for
example, the edges of the People module's screens
are yellow), the user is in Browse/Edit mode. If
the edges of the screen are gray or colorless, the
user is in Find mode. Be careful to ensure that you
are in Browse/Edit mode before entering new
records.

New and Delete
buttons - Click the New Record button (plus
sign) to create a new user in the People module.
Click the Delete Record button (trash can) to
delete the current user. You will be asked for
confirmation before deleting a user, and for good
reason. Deleting a user also deletes all events
associated with that user. Be very careful when
using the Delete Records button!

View button - Clicking the Calendar Month View

displays Month view for the current
date.

screen.
