Quick Reference (During E-Merge Launch)
The Quick Reference dialog guides the user through the most common type of merge operation (i.e., standard merge), in which all unmerged files in a folder are merged into a master data file for analysis. The Quick Reference dialog is meant to serve as an aid in learning how to use E- Merge, as well as a reminder of the basic steps involved in a merge operation once the application has been mastered.
The Quick Reference dialog appears by default when the E-Merge application is opened. This default may be changed using the Options command under the View menu so that the dialog is not displayed when E-Merge is opened. The dialog may be redisplayed at any time using the Quick Reference command under the View menu, and may be repositioned on the screen by clicking on the title bar and dragging the dialog to a new position.
