Edit Award References window.
In the bottom frame of the window you can see
the current value of the selected line: Name of header (see Fig. Award
details) 'State', 'Description', and the nickname of the reference
'Ref. Alias'.
New and
Edit buttons allow you to manually add and
change the line in the reference list. There is a reminder for each
mode: View, New and Edit in the title of this frame.
If you have a fairly large share of
patience and perseverance, you can add the entire list of WAS
awards manually - just 50 rows of three values. After clicking the
Export button and saving the file you can share it
with other users of AALog.
The best solution to create a reference
list is to use office software for creating formatted text files that can
then be imported into AALog.
Detail of the CSV file to import the list
of WAS awards:
"AK", "AK", "Alaska", "0"
"AL", "AL",
"Alabama", "0"
The last digit in this example - a sign of
removal:
- "0" - valid at the present time
- "1" - now removed from the list of
awards.
