number, simply enter the "incomplete" number and switch into the
program list with ENTER. The cursor is then located on the first

When the cursor is in the program list window, you can scroll through
the list to find the desired program. Enter the first character of the
program number for the highlight to jump to the next program that
starts with this number.

You can switch from "Program number" to "Program list" with ENTER
(or the vertical arrow keys). And ENTER (or the horizontal arrow keys)
will take you back to "Program number" again.

If you wish to change a program number, you must copy
the program, assign it a new program number, and then
erase the original program.
