Introduction

Whats a document? You use the AppleWorks application to create documents. A document is a computer file in which you enter information. You can create, open, change, save, print, delete, and duplicate documents. When saved, a document appears as an icon on the desktop.

When you create a document, it appears in its own window, with the tools needed for that document type.

When a document is open, you see its contents (such as a letter or a drawing) displayed in the window. When printed, a document looks just as it does on the screen.

Document types You can create six different types of documents with AppleWorks word processing, drawing, painting, spreadsheet, database, and communications. As you look at the document windows on the following pages, notice that each document type has its own menus and tools.

While each type of document is mainly for a certain type of work such as writing a letter or drawing a picture, you can use AppleWorks to combine different kinds of work within a single document by using a frame, a view of one document within a different type of document. For example, you can add a spreadsheet to a letter without first creating a spreadsheet document.

1-8

AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

Text (word processing) documents Use a word processing document to write a letter, report, story, outline, form letter, or other project that is mostly text. If you want to add a spreadsheet or pictures, you can do so without leaving the word processing document by creating a spreadsheet frame or drawing directly in the letter.

AppleWorks word processing documents give you great flexibility in the way you present what you write. Using multiple columns, for example, you can create professional-looking catalogs and reports. You can write better research papers by using AppleWorks to outline your ideas and to add footnotes or endnotes that number and renumber automatically. You can format documents in sections (like chapters in a book), each with its own header, footer, column configuration, and page numbering.

See chapter 4, Text (word processing), for more information about what you can do with word processing documents and text frames.

Introduction

Draw documents Use a draw document for artwork and page layout. A draw document includes objects (such as rectangles, circles, and lines) that you can create, select, move, and modify. If you want to add text, a spreadsheet, or clip art, you can do so in the same document.

Draw documents are useful for creating presentations, newsletters, maps, organizational charts, and illustrations. Draw documents are especially useful for complex page layoutsyou can link text frames in a draw document so the text flows from one frame to the next.

See chapter 5, Drawing, for more information about what you can do with draw documents and using drawing tools in all types of documents. For information on linking frames, see chapter 9, Beyond the basics.

Spreadsheet documents Use a spreadsheet document to organize numeric information, make calculations, and create professional-looking reports. You can also use a spreadsheet for any type of information (such as a schedule) that you want to present in a columnar format. You can add a headline or pictures, or turn the numbers into charts to aid comprehension, right in the spreadsheet document.

Database documents Database documents are useful for managing and organizing collections of information, such as address lists, student or customer records, or research notes. In a database document you can accumulate information, sort it, and print attractive reports. You can also perform sophisticated searches to find and work with only the information you want. By creating different layouts (views) of the data, you can organize and present the same data in many different ways. You can also enhance the data by adding pictures, patterned lines, or other objects to the database document.

See chapter 8, Database, for more information about database documents.

Communications documents A communications document is different from other AppleWorks documents. It conducts a communications session between your computer and an online information service, a bulletin board, or another computer.

With a communications document, you can connect to a remote computer and receive, send, and save data. Options are preset for most commonly used settings, so all you usually have to do is add the telephone number.

See chapter 10, Communications, for more information about communications documents.

Where to go from here Now youre ready to start AppleWorks and create some documents of your own. If you havent looked over the section How to start on page 1-1, do so now. It shows you how to use the manual and the onscreen Help system together to find information. Then go to Starting AppleWorks on page 2-1.

Saving document formatting as templates (stationery) Stationery is a template that you create once and then reuse many times. Save a document as stationery whenever you spend time customizing a document and think you may want to use the same settings again. For example, you can create stationery to design your own custom letterhead, a monthly newsletter, or a customer tracking database that you and the rest of your company can use regularly. Stationery can contain text, draw objects, paint images, formatting, and other options you routinely use. There are two ways to set up stationery in AppleWorks: regular and default.

Setting up regular stationery If you plan to reuse the same combinations of text, objects, or settings, you can create templates, called regular stationery, for specific uses. For example, you might want to create regular stationery for your letterhead or a newsletter.

You can set up regular stationery to open from the New Document dialog box or from the Open dialog box. Stationery set up to open from the New Document dialog box can be organized into categories to make it easier to find.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

To assign a category to a regular stationery document:

1. Choose Document Summary from the File menu.

2. Type a brief label in the Category box, and enter any other summary information you want to save with the stationery.

If you dont provide a category label, AppleWorks assigns the stationery document to the None category.

3. Click OK.

Your label shows in the Category pop-up menu in the New Document dialog box (click Use Assistant or Stationery to see the Category pop-up menu).

For more information about entering document summary information, see Identifying your documents on page 2-16.

Setting up default stationery If you plan to use certain settings every time you create a document, set up a document as default stationery (or Options stationery) that opens automatically whenever you create a new document of that type. For example, you might want to change the default font used in a new word processing document.

Creating stationery To create a stationery document, prepare a document with the settings and information you want to save as stationery, and then follow these steps to save the document:

1. Choose Save As from the File menu and click Stationery in the dialog box.

Protecting documents with passwords You can protect a document or stationery by setting a password, which you (and other users) must type before you can open the document or stationery using AppleWorks.

1. Choose Document Summary from the File menu.

2. Click Set Password, type a password (up to 255 characters of letters, numbers, or symbols), and then click OK.

3. In the confirmation dialog box, type the password again, and then click OK.

Important Keep the following points in mind:

1 If you set a password for default (Options) stationery, you must type the password each time you open the stationery document. If you dont type the correct password when you try to open the document, AppleWorks opens a blank document of the same type.

1 To maintain security, consider doing the following:

1 Make passwords easy to remember, but not so easy that someone can guess them.

1 If you write down passwords, store them in a secure place away from your computer.

1 Change passwords often.

1 Passwords provide a minimum level of security to your documents and should not be used to protect sensitive information. Setting a password does not encrypt the file. To protect sensitive documents, consider taking additional security measures.

Cutting, copying, and pasting In AppleWorks you can cut, copy, and paste text, objects, or images within a document or frame, between AppleWorks documents, and between an AppleWorks document and another applications document.

Note There are some exceptions to the cut and paste rules in AppleWorks documents. You cannot cut text from a communications document, but you can copy it. If you paste text into a communications document with an open connection, the text is sent to the remote computer to which you are connected. You also cannot paste objects into a spreadsheet cell. In a database document, you can paste objects only in Layout mode or into a multimedia field.

Copying objects using the drag and drop feature If your computers operating system supports drag and drop, you can use drag and drop to copy text, objects, images, and spreadsheet cells between documents and applications.

Note You can also use drag and drop to open and insert documents. For more information about drag and drop, see onscreen Help, and the documentation that comes with your computer.

To Do this For this result

Copy Select the text, object, or image to copy and click on the Default button bar, or choose Copy from the Edit menu.

Puts a copy of the selected text, object, or image on the Clipboard. The original item stays in the document or frame.

Cut Select the text, object, or image to cut and click on the Default button bar, or choose Cut from the Edit menu.

Removes the selected text, object, or image from a document or frame and places it in the Clipboard.

Paste Position the insertion point where you want to place the cut or copied text, object, or image, and click on the Default button bar, or choose Paste from the Edit menu.

Places the cut or copied text, object, or image at the insertion point, or the last place you clicked.

Basics 3-11

To use drag and drop to copy items between documents and applications:

1 Select text, objects, images, or spreadsheet cells and then drag them to another AppleWorks document, or to another application that supports drag and drop.

1 Select text or spreadsheet cells and drag them to the desktop. You see a text clipping (a file you can drag to another document or application).

1 Select draw objects or paint images and drag them to the desktop. You see a picture clipping (a file you can drag to another document or application).

1 Select text, objects, images, or spreadsheet cells and drag the selection from another document or application to an AppleWorks document.

1 Drag a text or picture clipping from the desktop to an AppleWorks document.

Changing your mind If you make a mistake or change your mind while youre working in AppleWorks, you can undo the latest change or go back to the last saved version of your document.

To Do this

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In the Help index,* see: E styles E styles, editing

In the Help index,* see: E Assistants E spreadsheets, tool E tables

4-20 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

Use any of the following methods to make a table:

Working with pages You can change the design of all or some of the pages in a document by formatting text in columns, putting text in tables, and adjusting page and column breaks.

You can also add headers and footers to pages and show the current page number, date, and time in the document. See Creating headers and footers on page 3-14 and Adding a date or time and Numbering pages on page 3-16.

To make a table Do this

By setting tabs Use the pointer to drag tab stops to the text ruler. See Setting and changing tabs on page 4-10.

To convert the tabbed table to a spreadsheet frame, select the text in the table and click on the button bar. See Using the button bar on page 3-5.

By creating a spreadsheet frame

Select the spreadsheet tool from the tool panel and drag the spreadsheet pointer diagonally. (If you dont see the tool panel, choose Show Tools from the Window menu.)

To make the spreadsheet frame move along with the text when you make changes in the document, insert the spreadsheet frame as an inline object, as if it were a character in the text. For more information, see Adding pictures and frames to text on page 4-34.

For more information abut creating and using a spreadsheet frame, see Spreadsheet basics on page 7-2.

Using an Assistant Choose AppleWorks Assistants from the or Help menu. Select Make Table and click OK. See Creating a document on page 2-2 for more information about Assistants.

Creating a title page If youve added a header or footer to a word processing document, you can create a title page so that the header or footer doesnt print on the first page.

To create a title page, choose Section from the Format menu. In the Section dialog box, select Title Page, and then click OK.

For information on creating more than one title page in a document, see Dividing a document into sections on page 4-24.

Creating and changing columns You can arrange text in multiple columns on every page of a document. As you type, text flows from the end of one column to the beginning of the next. When you make changes to the width or number of columns, the text adjusts accordingly.

Note You can set up different column formats from page to page, or on the same page, using sections. See Dividing a document into sections on page 4-24 and Varying the number of columns on a page on page 4-27.

To specify the number of columns in your document or text frame, choose Section from the Format menu, type the number of columns, and then click OK. You can specify up to nine columns, their widths (equal or variable), and the amount of space between each one.

To add or subtract columns of equal width, click the increase-columns or decrease-columns control in the text ruler.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

Text formatted in columns

4-22 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

Important If your document already contains columns of variable width, clicking the increase-columns or decrease-columns control changes them to equal width.

You can change a columns width and the space between two columns by using the mouse to drag the column guide (border).

Using text frames to create columns In complex columnar documents such as newsletters or brochures, try using linked text frames in a draw document instead of columns in a word processing document. Youll have more flexibility to resize text frames and place them where you want.

To Do this Example

Change a columns width

Press Option and move the pointer precisely over a column guide until the pointer looks like this: . Then press the mouse button and drag right or left.

Change the width of two adjacent columns and keep the space between them the same

Press Option and move the pointer between the column guides until the pointer looks like this: . Then press the mouse button and drag right or left.

Breaking a page or column Each page is preset to break (end) at the bottom of the page. Text continues at the top of the next page or column. You can end the page or column before it fills up by inserting a break at the insertion point.

To set a page or column break, position the insertion point where you want the break, and then choose Insert Column Break or Insert Page Break from the Format menu. If Show Invisibles is selected in the Preferences dialog box, you see a page or column break character where you inserted the break. (For more information about preferences, see Setting preferences on page 3-21.)

Tip To show or hide formatting characters quickly, click on the Default button bar, or type 2-; (semicolon).

To remove a break, click at the beginning of the line that follows the break and press Delete.

Scrolling pages In a multiple-page word processing document, you can scroll pages from side to side, or one page on top of the next.

To change how the pages scroll, choose Document from the Format menu. In the Document dialog box, select One Page Above The Next or Facing Pages Side-By- Side, and then click OK.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

Dividing a document into sections In AppleWorks, sections in documents act like chapters in books: each section can have a different format. You can change its header and footer text, page numbering, and number of columns. You can also place a special title page with no header or footer at the start of a section (see Creating a title page on page 4-21).

You can also divide a single page into multiple sections, each with different formatting.

You can insert sections into a word processing document only. You cannot insert a section into a header, footer, footnote, or text frame.

Varying the number of columns on a page If you add more than one section to a page, you can vary the number of columns on the page. For example, to create a page with one column on the top half of the page and two columns on the bottom half, add a second section to the page by selecting Insert Section Break from the Format menu and setting the section to start on a new line, and then add another column to that section.

You add columns using the column controls or the Section dialog box. Use the column controls to add or subtract equal-width columns. Use the Section dialog box to create variable-width columns or to enter precise column widths. For more information on adding columns, see onscreen Help, Creating and changing columns on page 4-21, and the previous section.

Numbering sections You can place the section number in a header or footer, and have it print on every page of the section. Doing so is useful if a section represents a chapter in a book, and you want to show chapter and page numbers. For example, you can show:

1 a section number by itself (Chapter 3, Chapter 4) or with the current page number (Page 3-11, Page 3-12)

1 a page number within a section (Page 1 of 10 and Page 2 of 10 where there are ten pages in the section)

1 the total number of pages in a section (This chapter contains 32 pages)

Once you choose either command, the Spelling dialog box appears and AppleWorks begins checking for questionable words.

The spelling checker verifies the words you are checking in the main dictionary, which is installed with AppleWorks, and any installed user dictionaries. If it does not find a word, it suggests alternatives. If the spelling of the word in question is correct (such as the spelling of someones name), you can add the word to a user dictionary by clicking Learn.

Tip If you need to check the spelling in a communications document, you can copy and paste the text into a word processing document, and then check spelling there. Or, save your communications document as text, then reopen that text file as a word processing document.

Hyphenating words You can use automatic hyphenation to prevent entire words from moving to the next line. You can also change where words hyphenate.

Adding pictures and frames to text There are two ways to place pictures and framessuch as clip art, spreadsheets, drawings, and paintingsin a word processing document. You can insert them as inline objects, so that they move along, or flow, with your text, or place them as independent objects that float on the page and are not affected by the text.

Insert an object as an inline object when you want the object always to appear next to specific text, or flow to the next line as you type more text. Add a floating object when you want to wrap text around the object (see the next section), or move the object with the arrow pointer.

To insert an inline or a floating object in a document, first show the tool panel (choose Show Tools from the Window menu if the tool panel is hidden). Then:

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

To insert Do this

An inline object in text Select the text tool in the tool panel, and then place the insertion point in the text before you paste, drag, or insert the object.

A floating object to a document Select the arrow pointer in the tool panel, and then paste, drag, or insert the object.

In the Help index,* see: E artwork, text E drawing, tools E libraries, overview

An inline object has one handle when you select the object

A floating object has four handles when you select the object

Text (word processing) 4-35

Once you add an object, you can change how its placed in text.

Aligning inline objects To move any inline object (except equations) above or below the baseline of the text, double-click the object. In the Descent dialog box, type the number of points (between 255 and 255) you want the object to move. Type a positive number to move the object below the line of text, or type a negative number to move it above the line of text.

Wrapping text around pictures You can wrap text so that it flows around a picture or frameeither in a rectangular shape or around the contours of the object.

To change Do this

A floating object to an inline object Select the arrow pointer in the tool panel and select the floating object. Choose Cut or Copy from the Edit menu, and then select the text tool in the tool panel. Then place the insertion point in the text and choose Paste from the Edit menu.

Chapter 5: Drawing

This chapter describes what you can do with the AppleWorks drawing tools. All draw features, including procedures, shortcuts, and troubleshooting, are described completely in onscreen Help.

When to use a drawing Use a drawing whenever you want to create simple shapes, such as rectangles, circles, lines, and polygons. You can combine these simple shapes to create designssuch as a map or a quick sketchin any type of document except a communications document. You dont need to create a frame first.

Consider using a draw document for large drawings or for designing or laying out a page. For example, you can:

1 create layouts for newsletters, brochures, and announcements

1 design a logo or letterhead

1 create professional-looking forms, such as invoices and project planning sheets

1 design a border or background and create a master page to place the border or background on every page of a presentation

1 make flowcharts, or seating and organizational charts

1 illustrate floor plans and furniture arrangements

Drawing basics You use the same tools and commands any time you work with the drawing tools.

Combine lines, text frames, and ready-made pictures to create a simple map

What are objects? A drawing is made of objectsseparate elements such as rectangles, lines, and text, as well as paint and spreadsheet frames. Think of a drawing as a collage in which you create and arrange objects of various shapes, sizes, and colors. When you overlap objects, the hidden parts still exist.

Every object has a border (which you can hide) and a fill (the area within the border).

Another type of object is a frame. Most of what you can do with an object you can do with a frame as well.

Using the drawing tools You use the tools in the tool panel to create, select, move, resize, and reshape objects. (If you dont see the tool panel, start by choosing Show Tools from the Window menu.)

You use the first four tools in the tool panel to work with frames and objects. For more information, see Working with frames on page 3-9.

Chapter 6: Painting

This chapter describes what you can do with an AppleWorks paint document or paint frame. All paint features, including procedures, buttons, and troubleshooting, are described completely in onscreen Help.

When to use a painting Use a painting when you want to create airbrush or brushstroke effects, to tint colors, or to transform shapes (for example, to add perspective to an image), or add special effects (for example, blurring an image). Because paintings are made of individual pixels (dots) that you can change, you have very precise control over textures, colors, and shapes.

Use an AppleWorks paint document or frame to:

1 create hand-painted artwork for invitations, holiday decorations, posters, and announcements

1 illustrate reports

1 work with scanned pictures

When you are painting, you use the same tools used to make drawings (described in Using the drawing tools on page 5-3) plus additional painting tools, such as the spray can.

6-2 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

How paintings and drawings differ Drawings are made of objects that can be selected, moved, or changed while retaining their individual identity. For example, when one object in a drawing overlaps another, the back object remains intact. Paintings are made of many separate pixels. Shapes drawn in a painting lose their individual identity and become part of the collection of pixels. For example, when one image in a painting overlaps another, the back image is permanently replaced with the front image.

Painting basics A painting can be a document or a frame. You use the same tools and commands any time you work with a painting, whether its a document or a frame.

Printing a spreadsheet document You can control various aspects of how your spreadsheet document prints.

Working with formulas Use formulas to perform calculations on spreadsheet data. You can combine numbers, cell references, named cells or ranges and functions (predefined formulas) to build your formulas. For some simple formula examples, see Examples: Entering formulas on page 7-25.

Important The examples in this documentation are based on U.S. conventions. For example, dates and numbers are shown in U.S. formats. In English-speaking countries other than the United States, functions, formulas, and calculations might be formatted differently. For example, in the U.S., commas act as separators in formulas. In other countries, semicolons might be used as separators.

Understanding formulas Within a single formula, you can calculate a result using:

1 values, such as $4.95, Ms. Jane Smith, or February 2, 1997

1 operators, such as +, -, *, =, >, or ()

1 cell references, such as B2, P66, or D7

7-22 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

Formulas can be simple or very complex, with many parts. All of these are legitimate (and simple) formulas:

See Working with functions on page 7-26 for more information on functions.

Cell references in formulas A formula can contain references to a cell or a range of cells. AppleWorks uses the data in the cells to compute the formulas result. There are two types of references: relative and absolute.

1 A relative reference gives the location of a cell relative to the location of the current cell. If you copy and paste a formula with a relative reference to another cell, AppleWorks changes the reference to reflect the relative position from the new source cell.

1 An absolute reference stays the same when you copy and paste a formula. To enter an absolute cell reference, type a dollar sign ($) before each part of the cell address. You can also mix absolute and relative addresses in the same formula (for example, =$A$1+B1).

This formula Does this

=B6+B8 Adds the values in cells B6 and B8

=E9*3.5 Multiplies the value in cell E9 by 3.5, a constant (fixed value) that you supply

=Shares*Price Multiplies the values in two named cells (see Naming cells and ranges on page 7-12)

=California Places a text constant (California) in a cell

=SUM(D4..D12) Uses the SUM function (a predefined formula) to add the values in the cell range D4 to D12

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In the Help index,* see: E cells, references

The formula in cell A3 is =$A$1+$A$2. If you copy the data in cell A3 to B3, the formula is still =$A$1+$A$2.

Relative reference

The formula in cell A3 is =A1+A2. If you copy the data in cell A3 to B3, the formula becomes =B1+B2.

Absolute reference

Spreadsheet 7-23

Circular references Avoid circular references in a spreadsheet. A circular reference occurs when two or more cells refer to each otherfor example when cell A1 contains =B2*3 and cell B2 contains =A1+4. A circular reference also occurs when a cell refers to itself, for example, in the formula A10=SUM(A1..A10).

AppleWorks marks cells that contain circular references with bullets. To turn off the markings, choose Display from the Options menu, and then deselect Mark circular refs.

Entering formulas You can type each of the formula elements or have AppleWorks enter cell references and functions for you. To enter a formula, select the cell where you want the formulas result to go and type an equal sign (=) in the entry bar. Type the formula after the equal sign (you can put a space before or after any operators), and then click to confirm your entry.

Tip You can quickly total the values in selected cells and display the result in the row or column cell adjacent to the selected cells. Select the cells (including a blank cell to display the total) and click on the Default button bar.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

To Do this Example

Enter a reference to a single cell

Click to select the cell that you want to refer to. AppleWorks enters a plus sign (+) when you click the next cell. (To use a different operatorsuch as * to multiply type the operator before you click the next cell.) AppleWorks inserts the cell reference at the insertion point in the formula.

Chapter 8: Database

This chapter describes how to design an AppleWorks database document to help you manage information. AppleWorks makes it easy for you to create a database, enter your data, format it in different layouts, and present custom reports. Once a database contains records, you can search through and sort them, change the data they contain, and design and print a report of some or all of the data.

All database features, including procedures, buttons, and troubleshooting, are described completely in onscreen Help.

When to use a database Use a database to:

1 maintain address lists, and then print names and addresses onto labels, form letters, and personalized notices

1 maintain customer lists for automated mass mailings, or information about guests and vendors for parties and events

1 create attractive invoices and reports

1 create lists you need to sort, such as bibliographies for school papers

1 catalog recordings, stamps, and other collections

Database basics If you have not previously worked with AppleWorks database documents, take a few minutes to read about some general database concepts, the basics of setting up a database, and entering information.

8-2 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

Whats a database? A database is a collection of related information, or data, which you can sort, search through, and print as needed. Using a database, you can organize and analyze information in various ways so that you understand its significance.

These are the elements that make up a database.

Using Browse, List, Find, and Layout modes In AppleWorks there are four modes in which to work with a database Browse, List, Find, and Layout. You select a mode using the corresponding command in the Layout menu.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In the Help index,* see: E databases, documents

Each category of information is a field

The information in each field is a value; values can be text, numbers, dates, times, pictures, references to movies, or formulas that calculate values

A set of fields is a record

In the Help index,* see: E Browse mode

In Browse and List modes, you view, add, change, and delete records

Creating a database document Note You cant create a database document within another document.

To create a database document when AppleWorks is running, choose New from the File menu. In the New Document dialog box, select Database, and then click OK.

Or, click on the Default button bar. (If you dont see the button bar, choose Show Button Bar from the Window menu.)

When you open a new database document, you begin by defining fields. The field definition consists of the field name, field type (such as text or number), and other options. Once you have defined the fields, you make new records and enter values (data) in the fields.

Example: Creating a simple database In this section, you set up an example database with two fields and three records.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In Find mode, you search for specific records to work with In Layout mode, you design the way you want the data to

Part 6: Close the database Note You may want to save your example database and use it to practice other database operations described in this chapter and in onscreen Help. For example, you could try adding different field types, changing the layout of the fields, and searching for specific records.

To save your database before closing it, click on the Default button bar, or choose Save from the File menu, type a name for the document (choose a different folder, if necessary), and then click Save.

To close the database document, choose Close from the File menu.

Designing a database Before you create a database, its a good idea to plan your database design on paper, to reduce the time and effort of redesigning. When planning your database, decide:

1 what you want the database to accomplish

1 which fields the database will contain and the type of data theyll hold

1 what each record in the database will represent (for example, an employee or an invoice)

1 how the database can help you work more efficiently, by using options such as formulas and automatic data entry

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In the Help index,* see: E planning databases

Identify fields that are automatic entries or the results of calculations

List the fields each record will hold

Database 8-7

Tip When you design a database that holds names and addresses, you can start quickly by using the Address List Assistant, and then changing the database as needed. For more information about using Assistants, see Using an Assistant on page 2-4.

Defining database fields Once you plan the design of a database, the next step is to define the fields to store the data. When you define a field, you give it a name and then select a field type to determine what kind of data (for example, numbers or a date) can be stored in the field. When you open a new database document, you see the Define Database Fields dialog box, where you set up database fields.

Note You can also change the appearance of text and the format of numbers, dates, and times for existing fields. For more information, see Changing the appearance of data on page 8-34.

Adding fields to an existing database To add fields to an existing document, choose Define Fields from the Layout menu. When you create new fields, AppleWorks automatically adds them to the layout you have chosen.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

8-8 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

Assigning field types To assign a field type to a field, choose from the Field Type pop-up menu in the Define Database Fields dialog box. Field types affect the way you enter and use your data.

Tip Use a text field (or a field that holds text, such as a pop-up menu) for postal codes so you can sort addresses by postal code number. If the postal code is a number field, AppleWorks ignores leading zeros. As text, the codes are sorted properly and retain any leading zeros.

Important The examples in this documentation are based on U.S. conventions and are shown in U.S. formats. In English-speaking countries other than the United States, numbers, dates, times, functions, formulas, and calculations might be formatted differently. For example, in the U.S., periods act as decimal points. In other countries, commas might be used as decimal points.

For complete information on every field type available in AppleWorks, see onscreen Help.

Defining calculation and summary fields You define a field type as a calculation or summary field when you want the value in the field to be the result of a formula. A formula can include values from one or more other fields in the database, operators, functions, and constant values.

For example, suppose you have a database that contains two number fields, Qty Sold and Price, and one calculation field, Total. You can set up a formula in the calculation field to multiply the values in the two number fields. Then, each time you type values in the Qty Sold and Price fields, the formula multiplies those values and displays the result in the Total field.

You enter a formula for a calculation or summary field just as you do for a spreadsheet cell. (See Working with formulas on page 7-21.) The type of operation a formula performs depends on the field type of the values it calculates and whether the formulas field type is calculation or summary.

1 Use a calculation field to calculate a value from values in other fields in the current record.

1 Use a summary field to calculate a summary value using values from one or more records in the database.

You immediately see the result for a calculation field in Browse mode and List mode when you add records, and when you change values used in a calculation.

Note To see the result for a summary field, you must create a summary part in Layout mode, and insert the summary field. Then, sort the records and switch to page view. For more information about summarizing data, see Presenting and summarizing data with parts on page 8-36.

Presenting and summarizing data with parts You use database parts to present and summarize data on the screen and when printed. A standard layout has one parta bodywhich contains the data from all current records. Other parts you can add are a header, sub-summaries, grand summaries (leading and trailing), and a footer.

To insert a layout part, choose Layout from the Layout menu, choose Insert Part from the Layout menu, and then select the part to add.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In the Help index,* see: E layouts, parts for E summaries, database

A header part repeats information above the data on every page of a layout in a database document. You can place text or pictures here.

The body part contains the data from

individual records A sub-summary part contains one or more summary fields that summarize data in a group of sorted records. It appears only when records are sorted by the field it summarizes (in this example, records are sorted by the Name field). You can place a sub-summary part above or below the data it summarizes.

Parts in Browse mode (Page View on)

Parts in Layout mode

A grand summary contains one or more summary fields that summarize

data in all records in a document. A leading grand summary goes above the information, and a trailing grand

summary goes below.

A footer part repeats information below the data on every page of a layout in a database document. You can place text or pictures in a footer part.

Summary fields are defined with the formula =SUM(Contribution)

Database 8-37

Keep the following points in mind:

1 A header or footer part differs from a page header or footer. A page header or footer is text or pictures that appears at the top or bottom of a page in any AppleWorks document (except communications). It appears on every page of a document, (unless you create a title page in a word processing document using the Section command). A header or footer part appears on every page of a database document.

To add a page header or footer to a database document, in Browse or List mode, choose Insert Header or Insert Footer from the Format menu. (These commands arent available in Layout mode.)

1 To display or print summary data on separate pages, add a page break before or after a sub-summary part. In Layout mode, choose Insert Part from the Layout menu. In the Insert Part dialog box, select a summary part, and then choose an option for a page break.

Copying summary data You can copy data in summary fields when youre in page view and when a sub-summary, leading grand summary, or trailing grand summary exists. For example, copy values from summary fields into a spreadsheet, and then display a bar chart using those values.

To copy summary data, choose Browse from the Layout menu, then choose Page View from the Window menu. Choose Copy Summaries from the Edit menu. Open the application or document to hold the copied data, and then paste the data (for example, select an area in the document and choose Paste from the Edit menu).

You can also or import an AppleWorks document with FileMaker Pro. To do so, export (save) the AppleWorks document as a DIF document, and then import (open) the DIF document with FileMaker Pro. When you import a FileMaker Pro or AppleWorks database document from the DIF format, the field names are preserved.

Printing a database document You print a database document in Browse, List, or Layout mode. In Browse or List mode, the Print dialog box gives you the option of printing the current record or all visible records.

Printing labels You can print labels on continuous sheets or on individual sheets of label stock. Before printing labels on label stock, make one or more trial printouts on plain paper to make sure that the spacing is correct and all the text prints within the label boundaries. You may have to make the fields in the layout slightly smaller to fit within the label.

AppleWorks sets the layout margins automatically when you use a preset Avery label layout. If you print custom labels on a laser printer, you must set the layout margins yourself. For more information, see Setting margins on page 3-17.

Closing up space when you print When you print labels, unused spaces created by blank fields are closed up and dont print. When you print from any other layout, field data is preset to print as it appears on the screen.

To change the layout of the data when it prints, choose Edit Layouts from the Layout menu. Select a layout from the Current Layouts list, and then click Modify. In the Layout Info dialog box, select the settings you want, and then click OK. You can control the number of columns and close up unused spaces to the left of or above fields.

Chapter 9: Beyond the basics

Use the features covered in this chapter to help you make the most of AppleWorks. With these features, you can combine different document types, make presentations, automate the way you work, create book marks in areas of a document you want to return to, create links to a different document, include other applications in your documents, and easily share data with other documents and applications.

This chapter gives instructions for using links, styles, frames, master pages, the slide show, QuickTime movies, mail merge, and macros. All features, including procedures, buttons, and troubleshooting, are described completely in onscreen Help.

Creating links AppleWorks documents (except database and communications documents) can be linked. When you plan to use an AppleWorks document onscreen or on the Internet or World Wide Web, you can select an area of the document and create a link. In AppleWorks, there are three types of links: book marks, document links, and Uniform Resource Locator (URL) links.

To create a link, you select text, a spreadsheet cell, paint image, frame, or object (such as a graphic object in a drawing), and then create the link. If a selection has more than one link assigned to it, the last link assigned will be the active link.

For more information about links, see the following sections or onscreen Help.

Using styles Styles are collections of formatting information you can apply to text, objects, spreadsheet cells, or database fields. Documents often use different elements with consistent formats, such as chapter headings and subheadings, tables, and draw objects. To ensure uniformity and to save time in formatting these elements, you can create custom styles that store your formatting settings. Or, apply the preset styles that come with the AppleWorks stylesheet palette. If you change your mind about the formatting in your document, you can edit styles once and have the formatting change throughout the document. You can also transfer custom styles between documents.

Chapter 10: Communications

This chapter explains how to use AppleWorks to establish communication between your computer and another computer. All communications features, including procedures, shortcuts, and troubleshooting, are described completely in onscreen Help.

When to use a communications document Create a communications document when you want to exchange information with another computer. Use an AppleWorks communications document to:

1 connect to a text-based commercial online service such as CompuServe

1 connect to a computer you can access at your business or school

1 connect to a public or private bulletin board service (BBS)

1 transfer files directly from one computer to another

Communications basics To get started with communicating with other computers, you need to have the correct software and hardware setup and become familiar with communications terms and AppleWorks communications documents.

What you need Before you can use AppleWorks for communications, you need:

1 the Apple Communications Toolbox tools (for example, the Apple Modem Tool). If you installed the full version of AppleWorks, the installation program copied the necessary tools to your system if you didn't already have them.

1 a modem and the necessary cables to connect your computer to a telephone line. Refer to the modem manufacturers manual and the online service for additional requirements.

Note If youre connecting directly to another computer, you may not need a modem. Instead, you can use a serial connection cable. See Connecting to another computer without a modem on page 10-4 for more information.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

10-2 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

Communications terms and concepts If youre new to communications, you need to be familiar with the following communications terms and concepts.

Term Definition

Terminal A screen and keyboard used to communicate with a remote (distant) computer. The remote computer can be as close as the same room or building, or as far away as another country. Using the terminal software included in the AppleWorks package, your computer can emulate (act like) a terminal, so that your computer and the remote computer can communicate.

Host computer A computer that answers requests for information or that acts as a gateway to other computers. You communicate with a host computer across a serial port or network port. To communicate with a host computer, you usually need an assigned user name and password. When you identify yourself at connection time, youre logging on. When you disconnect, youre logging off.

Connecting The process of establishing communication with another computer. Communication from one computer to another requires a transmission channelusually a telephone line, but sometimes a cable between two computers. Connection by telephone requires a modem, a device that turns data from your computer into a signal that can be transmitted over a telephone line. The computer at the other end of the telephone connection also requires a modem.

Session The amount of time from when you connect to an online service or another computer to when you disconnect (also called connect time). When you use a commercial online service, youre usually billed only for connect time.

Online service A host computer that gives you access to a variety of information, such as weather forecasts, airline schedules, databases used for research, and bulletin boards for communicating with other users. AppleWorks supports only text based online services and cannot be used to browse the World Wide Web.

Chapter 11: AppleWorks and the Internet

With AppleWorks, you can open, view, and create documents that contain Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) on the Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW, or Web). You can also create your own HTML files and place them on the Internet and the Web as Web pages, to present information to people using the Web.

This chapter describes how to use AppleWorks to set up your computer for use with the Internet, create Web pages, and send and receive electronic mail (email). Before you begin, you need to understand how to create and edit documents. In particular, you should understand the information in chapter 2, Creating, opening, and printing documents, chapter 4, Text (word processing), and chapter 5, Drawing. You should also understand Using the button bar on page 3-5, and Editing links on page 9-4.

All Internet features, including procedures, buttons, and troubleshooting, are described completely in onscreen Help.

About the Internet and the Web The Internet is a collection of computer networks that use a common set of rules for exchanging information, called the transmission control protocol/ Internet protocol (TCP/IP). Using the Internet with your computer, you can work with information thats stored at other locations. For example, you can read weather reports from around the world, send and receive electronic mail (email), and attend a creative writing class from a remote site.

The Internet network was once limited to simple, text-only documents. With the development of the Web, documents can now include graphics, various text styles, and links (connections, or jumps, to areas of the same document, or to other Web pages, applications, or servers on the Web). A document on the Web is called a Web page, home page, or start page.

11-2 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

A Web page contains formatting information, which determines how the document looks and how you can use it onscreen. You can use AppleWorks to create and format a Web page without knowing HTML. Create a word processing document that has the information you want on your Web page, and then save the document in HTML format. AppleWorks adds the correct HTML tags and your Web page is ready for delivery to your Web site.

To access, view, and place a Web page on the Web, you need:

1 a modem (internal or external)

1 a phone line or an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) line

1 a browser, an application that displays information from the Internet. (For more information, see About Browsers, next.)

1 software from an Internet service provider (such as America Online or CompuServe). For more information, refer to a specific provider.

1 an account or connection with the Internet service provider

About browsers To open, read, and work with Web pages, you use a browser, an application that displays information from the Web in a format you can read and work with.

Each browser interprets HTML tags differently. For example, one browser may display headings in color with an elegant typeface, while another may display headings in capital letters.

Selecting a browser Before you can use the Internet with AppleWorks, you need to select a browser to use. You can change your selection at any time.

To select a browser:

1. Choose Internet from the menu on the Default button bar. (If you dont see the button bar, choose Show Button Bar from the Window menu.)

2. Click on the Internet button bar.

3. In the Internet Preferences dialog box, click Helpers.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

Connecting to the Web Once youve selected a browser to use, you can quickly connect to the Web using the selected browser.

To do so, on the Internet button bar, click .

Creating a Web page A Web page is an HTML file on the Web. With the AppleWorks translator, you can easily create an HTML file without understanding HTML or how it works. You simply create a word processing document and save your work as an HTML file. You see immediately how your document will look on the Web.

Note The AppleWorks HTML translator displays a Web page in a standard format. However, your Web page may appear different on different browsers. You can customize the format for specific browsers by clicking the HTML Configuration button and adding or modifying the tags that are exported.

Designing your Web page Before you create a Web page, its a good idea to learn about effective Web page design. You can find such information in the computer and software sections of bookstores, in computer industry magazines, in classes and seminars, and on the Internet. In addition, browse the Web and note aspects of other Web pages that youd like to use in your own.

11-4 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

As you create a Web page with AppleWorks, keep the following design tips in mind:

1 Keep your design simple and uncluttered. An orderly design makes it easier to scan the page to find information.

1 Limit the size of your page so that users scroll no more than three screens.

1 Use headings so that users can scan the page and read the portions they want.

1 Consider separating areas of text with horizontal lines.

1 Organize related information in lists.

1 Use boldface and italic styles sparingly. Too much emphasis makes text difficult to read. Dont use underline, because underlined text indicates a jump to related information.

1 Choose typefaces and colors that are easy to read onscreen.

Creating an HTML file To create an HTML file for a Web page, start by creating a word processing document, and then save your work as an HTML file.

Important Before you begin, be sure you understand the information in the previous sections of this chapter.

3. Create the document with the text and art you want posted to the Web.

Adding pictures You can include pictures in any format supported by AppleWorks, such as TIFF and PICT. When you save the document as HTML, AppleWorks translates any art in the document to a format (GIF or JPEG) that is readable by Web browsers.

Important When you save an HTML file, each picture is saved as a separate file in the same folder as the document. If you move the HTML file to a different folder or computer, you must move the picture files to the same location. To make the pictures and documents easier to find, save each HTML file (with the pictures) in its own folder.

To add a picture:

1. Open or create the word processing document that you want to use as a Web page.

To Do this

Apply a style to text Select the text to format, and then click any style from the stylesheet palette.

Apply a type style to text Select the text, and then click to make the text bold or click to make the text italic. Dont use underline, which is a convention used to indicate a link.

Organize information into a numbered or bulleted list

Choose styles from the pop-up menu. Use Harvard, Legal, or Number for numbered lists; use Diamond, Bullet, or Checklist for bulleted lists.

Insert a horizontal line to separate sections of text

Place the insertion point where you want the line to begin. Choose Insert Page Break or Insert Section Break from the Format menu. AppleWorks ignores automatic page breaks when you save the document as HTML.

Add a table Use an inline or floating spreadsheet frame.

Insert a picture See Adding pictures, next.

Create a link from your document to a different document, or to other information on the Internet

See Linking Web pages on page 11-6.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In the Help index,* see: E Web pages, graphics for

11-6 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

2. Add art as an inline or floating object.

You can draw objects or paint frames directly in the document, use art from a library, or insert art from another document.

Linking Web pages You can create links (connections or jumps) from selected areas in a Web page to a different location in your Web page or to other Web pages. Links can jump to a bookmarked location or to a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). Links to another part of the same document or to another document are called document links. Links to a Web page are called URL links.

For example, create a link from a button in your HTML file to related sites.

Note You can also create a link to a different document or a different area of the same document, even when the linked documents are not on the Web. For more information, see Creating links on page 9-1.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

In the Help index,* see: E Web pages, links to

These links jump to a different location on the Web page

URL address for this Web page

This button jumps to a different Web page

AppleWorks and the Internet 11-7

You can attach links to selected text, an object, or to paint and spreadsheet frames.

To create a link to a URL:

1. Open the Web page document from which to create the link, and then select the item to create the link from.

2. Click on the Internet or Default button bar. (If you dont see the button bar, choose Show Button Bar from the Window menu.)

3. In the New URL Link dialog box, create a link, and then click OK.

4. To test the link, choose Show Links Palette from the Window menu and make sure Live Links is selected.

In an HTML file, the area linked to a URL appears underlined in the AppleWorks document, and the pointer changes appearance over the underlined area. To view the linked URL, click the underlined area.

A link can jump to a document (called a document link) or to a specific location within a document (called a book mark). If you create a document link, clicking the link opens the document. If you create a book mark, clicking the link opens the document and locates the book mark within the document.

Type the URL address

Type a name for the link

2. On the Internet or Default button bar, click to create a link to another document.

3. In the New Document Link dialog box, create a link, and then click OK.

4. To test the link, choose Show Links Palette from the Window menu and make sure Live Links is selected.

To create a link to another part of your Web page:

1. Open the Web page document from which to create the link, and then select the item to create the link from.

2. On the Internet or Default button bar, click to create a link to another part of the same document.

3. In the New Book Mark dialog box, create a link, and then click OK.

4. To test the link, choose Show Links Palette from the Window menu and make sure Live Links is selected.

In an HTML file, the area linked to a book mark appears underlined, and the pointer changes appearance over the underlined area. To view the book mark, double-click the underlined area.

Keep the following points in mind:

1 To reduce the amount of scrolling of your Web page, create links to other areas of the same document. (You can also create URL links to other Web pages.) For more information, see Creating document links on page 9-2.

1 For information about changing a link, see Editing links on page 9-4 and Deleting links on page 9-4.

1 When you print a Web page with links, the linked information isnt printed.

Saving a document in HTML format Once you have an AppleWorks word processing document that you want to post to the Web, you need to save it in two formats: as an AppleWorks document and as HTML. When you edit the Web page later, you open the AppleWorks document, not the HTML file.

When you save a document in HTML format:

1 URL links are translated into HTML links

1 book marks are translated into HTML anchors

1 most styles are translated into HTML styles

To save a document in HTML format:

1. Choose Save As from the File menu.

2. Save your document first by choosing AppleWorks from the Save As pop-up menu.

* Choose Index from the or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from the list and click Go To Topic.

Double-click the underlined area to go to the linked information

The pointer looks like this over a link

In the Help index,* see: E Web pages, saving

11-10 AppleWorks 5 Users Manual

3. Type a name for the document followed by the filename extension .cwk, and then click OK.

4. Save the document again and choose HTML from the Save As pop-up menu.

5. Type a name for the file followed by the filename extension .html, and then click OK.

Opening and editing HTML files When you edit your HTML file or Web page, you open the original AppleWorks word processing document. After you make changes to the document, you must save it again as an HTML file.

1. Choose Open from the File menu.

2. In the Document Type pop-up menu, select Word Processing.

3. In the File Type pop-up menu, select .cwk.

4. Locate and then select the document.

5. View the document, and then make any changes you want.

6. If you made changes, save the document as described in the previous section, Saving a document in HTML format.

Working with electronic mail With AppleWorks, you can send and receive email messages to and from many types of computers and mail systems, locally or in remote locations. You can work with electronic mail on the Internet or over a different computer network.

To work with electronic mail, you must have the appropriate hardware (such as a modem and phone line). In addition, your computer must be connected to an Internet service provider or another network that provides electronic mail services.

For more information about sending and receiving electronic mail, see onscreen Help. In addition, see the documentation that comes with your computer, browser, or Internet service provider.
