menu, by pressing the indicated accelerator-key or key
combination (in this case, the F2 key).

A toolbar. This is a series of pictorial "icons" just
under the title bar of the window. These provide
alternatives to certain menu options. We’re going to
ignore the toolbar in this particular tutorial.
A set of data-entry fields. These are spaces into which
information can be typed, checked off, or selected from
pre-determined lists.
Two “action buttons,” marked OK and Cancel. These

Step 5: Type in the name, address, etc. of the practice.
This may be simply the name, degree and office location of

PhD). Or it may be a business name (e.g., “Park East
