The Notes entries are optional and for the convenience of the user. Double clicking or entering the Day field displays the corresponding weekday and short date in a pop-up dialog box. As soon as you tab out of the Day field the additional data box closes so as not to obscure the meal fields. If the meal doesn't exist in the database, you are offered an opportunity to create a new meal record and add the specifics. The record buttons allow the user to create a new record, save a record, copy a record, and delete the current record.
Dialog boxes ensure correct operation.
The trip entry process may occasionally be sped up by copying a sample trip, renaming it, and then making any necessary changes. Most buttons have an alt key so mouse use can be minimized if desired. The blue lettered buttons generate reports. A packing breakout is included so users know where to put each item and what sizes should be purchased.
