Procedure
To select a date (for example, 03/10/91) using the scrolling date function:
1. If you are using a mouse, click on the part of the date (month, day or year) to
be modified to highlight it.
If you are using the keyboard, use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right key to
move the cursor to select the month (part of the date you want to change).
NOTE:
Be careful when you are incrementing the month that the current day also
exists in the newly selected month. For example, if you want to change
the date 01/31/91 to 02/28/91, you must change the day to 28 first;
otherwise, the system will not let you increment the month to 02 (since
there is no 31st day in February).
2. If you are using a mouse, click and hold the left mouse button on the up
arrow until the month 03 scrolls into view. If you are using the keyboard,
press and hold the Cursor Up key until the month 03 scrolls into view.
3. Repeat this procedure to increment the day to 10 and the year to 91.
Time Field
The scrolling Time field is used for all applications where you can enter a time
value (from 00:00:00 through 23:59:59). The scrolling Time field has two formats
(with or without seconds), as shown below.
Using either the mouse or the keyboard, you can scroll through the hour, minute,
and second (when applicable) to make your time selection.
