the name appears as the title for the screen in the Projects Information window.

assign a new name that helps define the purpose of the screen, (i.e. numeric
keypad).

entered, then only the specified number of characters prints, beginning with
text at the top of the screen.

d. Password – user can protect access to the selected screen by assigning a

numeric password. Range is 0 to 9999 (0 is no password assigned). When
