You complete screens in TFACTS in the same way as other Web-based forms. So some of the tips you may have used elsewhere work here as well. Common keyboard actions appear in the following table.

First letter |
With your cursor in a drop-down list, press the first letter of the word you are looking for. This quickly displays it in the field. For example, press A on your keyboard to select "AM." When you press the letter repeatedly, the system displays the next word in the list that begins with that letter, allowing you to locate items quickly. |

Press this key to display the bottom of the screen. |
|

Ctrl-F |
Press this key to display a Find box to search for fields or records on a screen. For example, if you are displaying the Intake Workload screen, press Ctrl-F and enter the ID number of the intake you want to find. The system highlights the intake ID in the list. |

Ctrl-mouse wheel |
Hold down the Ctrl key and move the wheel on your mouse up to zoom in the display (make it appear larger). Move the wheel down to zoom out the display (make it appear smaller). CAUTION: Be careful not to use the mouse wheel when a drop-down list is selected. You could unintentionally change your selection. |

Clearing a field |
To clear an entry in a drop-down field, select the blank line at the top of the list. Or click on the field label to the left of the field. (The Delete key does not clear a field within a drop-down list.) |
