databases with PNE as you want. Databases save as

.pdb

files on your local

hard drive.

NOTE:

You can open only one printer database at a time.

The Status and Error Log scrolls status and error messages as you work
through the program. If PNE does not function properly, look at this pane for
error messages. Use the scroll bar on the side of the pane to reference
previous status and error messages. The status and error messages relate to
the current PNE session, not to the specific database. When you exit PNE,
these messages will be deleted.

The Status Bar displays brief status messages of PNE, some of which appear
in the Status and Error Log.

The Polling Indicator turns green whenever printers are being polled.

The Menu Bar

The printer database menu bar is located at the top of the window

(see Figure 8). Use the menu bar to access all the functions of PNE.

The following are descriptions of the options located on the menu bar.

The File Menu

New

open at a time, it asks if you want to save your changes to the current
database before it creates a new one.

Open

Opens a database file. Since PNE allows only one database file to be open at
a time, it asks if you want to save your changes to the current database before
it opens a different one.
