Help Submenu To view online help, WingX status, the WingX ID (for registration purposes), or version numbers, use the Help submenu. The Help submenu should be used when you need to access the integrated help to learn of all the features on a page. Also use the integrated help to learn about the menu system and what each menu option does. Tapping on Help will display a submenu consisting of the following items: • Help for this page...: Displays help for the current page. • Help using the menu...: Displays help about the WingX menu. • How to update databases...: Displays help on how to update the WingX databases. • How to register WingX...: Displays help on the registration process. • How to provide feedback...: User feedback drives future WingX development. Feedback to Hilton Software is critical. Every user is strongly encouraged to contact us and let us know what you like and what you’d like improved. Even if it is some 'out of the box' thought, please let us know. While we have a very long ‘to do’ list, we are continually evaluating features for the upcoming version. To contact us, email us at: support@hiltonsoftware.com • Status...: Provides status information such as the location and dates of the databases, as well as the IP address and battery level. If the IP address is ‘None’, then your Pocket PC has no internet connection. • Register...: Displays the WingX ID and provides a text box for the user to enter the registration key. For more information, please see Help, How to register WingX. • About...: Shows the WingX name, the Hilton Software company name, the WingX version, and the copyright warning. Popup Menus Almost every text box that appears in WingX has an associated popup menu. Tap-and-hold the stylus on the text box to display that text box’s popup menu. A popup menu with various options will appear. This is a great feature for quick data entry or if you’re not sure exactly what to enter on a text box. The popup menu is a superb tool on the Pocket PC since many Pocket PCs do not have physical keyboards. 29
