List Navigation
Mouse Tracks uses a powerful list control. This list control is very user friendly and should reduce the time you spend searching for a particular record. This help section will refer to lists in general. Please note that not all lists support every feature described. For example, some of the smaller lists are not sizable. However, all the major lists in Mouse Tracks are sizable. Below are descriptions of some of the command buttons that you will see in the lists.
Export List
This will bring up a form to allow you to export the list. For more information see Exporting Lists.

Datasheet View
This will bring up the list in a grid-type format. For more information see Datasheet Views.

Remove Filters
Removes filters on the form. Note that this will not clear the value of the quick filter option
Quick Filter
Some of the lists include a 'Quick Filter' option. For example, the computer list opens with the default option 'All'. You can quickly filter the list by choosing 'Allocated' or 'Not Allocated'.
Sorting Lists
You can sort the list on any of the columns by clicking on the column header. A subsequent click on the column header will sort the list in descending order. The only type of column that can't be sorted is a memo field.
Miscellaneous
Double Click on an item to perform the default task for that item. For example, double clicking a computer would open up the computer detail form, while double clicking on a report would open up the report preview.
Pressing the Enter key while an item is selected will perform the default task for an item.
Pressing the delete key while item(s) in the list are selected will delete the items from the list.
Pressing an alpha-numeric key while the list has focus will move you to the first item in the list where the first column matches your keystroke. If you repeat the same keystroke, you will be moved to the next matching item and so on.
Pressing Escape or Ctl-F4 will close the current list.
