Push buttons - these initiate immediate action. The
button includes a text to describe its action, for
example, ‘Start’ or ‘Cancel’. Some push button
descriptions have an ellipsis (...), and will open a
further dialogue box for more information. To
activate a push button, click on it with the mouse
button.
i Note
Push buttons that are unavailable are ‘grayed’
(displayed with reduced contrast). The
currently selected push button has a darker
outline than all others.
Text boxes - are rectangular boxes into which you
type information. When an empty text box is
selected by clicking on it, an insertion point (a
flashing vertical bar also known as a cursor) appears
on the left-hand side of the box. As you type, the text
starts at the insertion point. Text already in a text
box can also be edited. This text is highlighted when
it is selected, and any new text typed in automatically
replaces it.
List boxes - contain a column of available choices.
To select an item, simply click on it. Normally only
one item can be selected from a list box, but for
certain applications, more than one item can be
selected using the <CTRL> key plus mouse button.
Drop-down list boxes - appear initially as a
rectangular box with the current choice. The arrow
in a square box at the right opens the list of available
choices. Drop-down list boxes are often used in
dialogue boxes that are too small or crowded to
contain normal list boxes.
i Note
If a list contains more choices than fit in the list
box or drop-down list box, scroll bars are
provided to help you move quickly up and
down the list.
Radio buttons - appear in dialogue boxes for
selecting mutually exclusive items. You can only
select one option from the list at a time, and selecting
a new item will automatically cancel the currently
selected button.
Check boxes - appear in dialogue boxes for selecting
any number of nonexclusive options that each can be
switched on and off. You can select as few or as
many check box options as are appropriate. When a
check box is selected it contains a ‘√’, otherwise it is
empty. To clear a selected check box, click on it
again.

representing the software. You should be able to
recognize this shortcut, i.e. you should know its
name.
