- copied directly to a sub directory of Easy Base V10. However,
- the .PPR files created by V9 are not compatible with V10 and
- must be erased before the application is used. You can erase all
- .PPR files by selecting and exiting from Relationships in the
- application directory.

- are new commands: Reset Sequence, Beep, Pack and Recall input Screen.
