Automate your repetitive installation of custom menus for Queries, Write, and Reports on each workstation.

Assist in the customization of User Defined Fields. You usually have to do a lot of tedious clicking to go the next field, then click back to the Field Name and/or Width, then click on to the next field (or tab 11 times). This can all be done with a simple tap of the F12 key (or key you customize.)

Samples:
