Entering Your Records with the Rapid Entry Wizard

You can avoid manually entering your discs into the database by using the rapid tool. You can transfer a record from the reference database to your database be means of the UPC code, Catalog Number, or Title. A bar code scanner can speed up the process. Use the following procedure to rapidly inventory the disc in your collection:

  1. Select Rapid Tool from the menu bar (Tools Menu)
  2. Select the attribute you want to use to search the reference database. The default is by catalog.
  3. Select the text box, and enter the search value into the text box. You start the search by pressing the Enter Key if the text box is selected. When you search by catalog and title, the search will select any records that contain the information that you entered. You do not have to enter the complete catalog number of title. The UPC must be an exact match.
  4. The reference records that match you selection criteria will be displayed in the first datasheet grid. No more than 25 reference records will be displayed. You may need to enter more of the catalog number or title to narrow the search criteria.
  5. Once you find a record matching the disc in your collection, select that record and then select the Add Record command button. The record from the reference database will be copied you your database. When the copy is complete, the new record will appear in the lower datasheet which shows the records in your collection.
