Main Menu Access

From each of the action frames, you want to give the user access to the

Main

Menu

. You must create additional Links back to the

Main Menu

frame. These

will be jointed Links that bend at a 90° angle. Complete the following steps:

1. Select

Create > Link

and click on the

Collect Data

frame.

2. Instead of clicking directly on the other frame, move the cursor

straight up until it is level with the

Main Menu

frame, and then click

the left mouse button.

3. Now move the pointer to the

Main Menu

frame and click the left

mouse button. A jointed line appears.

4. Use the same method to create a jointed Link from the

Upload Data

frame to the

Main Menu

frame.

Your frame should now look like

Figure 79 on page 109

.

To adjust a Link, use the mouse to drag the Link’s arrowhead.

To delete a Link, select the ESC key.

Jointed Links work just like straight Links, but they give you more flexibility in their
placement. If a jointed Link appears jagged, drag its joint until its lines are
perpendicular.

To redraw the screen and erase any extraneous lines, click in any blank area of the
flow chart
