<br />VERSION 1.0 1/12/95 <br /> <br />PROGRAM BASICS <br /> <br />Cell Colors <br /> <br />Before you begin the data entry process, note that all areas <br />(blocks or cells) of the program screens are color coded to remind the <br />user what type of information each cell contains. <br /> <br />The cell type appears in the Style List window when the cursor is <br />clicked on a cell. The Style List window is in the upper Sp.eedBar. <br /> <br />Ilnformlltion !II <br /> <br />In the Benefit-Cost Program, background space is white and identifying <br />labels (which cannot be changed) have black text on white <br />backgrounds. There are seven colors which indicate different types of <br />data entries or calculated results: <br /> <br />GREEN Blocks (Data Input) require the user to enter data concerning <br />the building or project and directly affect the calculated results. <br /> <br />PINK Blocks (Information Only) contain information about the <br />building or project and do not affect the calculated results. <br /> <br />PURPLE Blocks (Carry Over) contain information that was entered by <br />the user in other screens. <br /> <br />ORANGE Blocks (Default) contain default data which vary depending <br />on the building type selected and other user-determined inputs. <br /> <br />BLUE Blocks (Override Default) can be used to override default data <br />with project-specific data. <br /> <br />YELLOW Blocks (Results) contain calculated results from the <br />program. <br /> <br />RED Block (OMB Policy) contains the discount rate entry that is <br />defined by OMB or FEMA policy and thus is not a user-defined entry. <br /> <br />Unprotected User data entries can be made ONLY in PINK, GREEN, BLUE, or RED <br />Blocks blocks. "Unprotected" means that data entries CAN be made within <br />these blocks. <br /> <br />Protected Blocks Blocks colored ORANGE, YELLOW, and PURPLE are protected. The <br />background, or normal blocks. which appear WHITE are also protected. <br />User entries CANNOT be made in these blocks. To change <br />information in PURPLE blocks (Carry Over) the original data entries in <br />the PINK or GREEN blocks must be changed. To change entries in the <br />ORANGE or YELLOW blocks, the underlying selections or data entries <br />which affect these blocks must be changed. <br /> <br />3-11 <br />
