- Each event is a list of DOS commands which perform a function or a few closely
- related functions. For example, an event could be defined which runs a group of
- daily reports. The DOS commands to run the reports are entered in the same way
- that they would be entered at the DOS prompt. Each event has a description
- which may be changed from this list.
-
- Use the arrow keys, HOME, END, PgUp, PgDn, and the tab key to move through
- the list of events.
