TCP/IP Configuration
File
This menu allows viewing of the Log and Sales Files, Open a different Database and
Exiting from the program.
Open Log & Sales Files
Selecting this option will display the Open File Dialog.  The two choices of file types
available are 'TXT' and 'CSV'.  The POSUtilityLog.txt is the Log File for the program
and is also the default filename displayed.  To view Sales Files, select 'CSV' as the
file type.  These files are by default opened with Notepad.
Open Database
Allows you to open a database in a different directory.  Note that the database
MUST be named 'POSUtility.mdb'.  Selecting this option will display an input form
asking you for a Customer Name.  This is the name of the folder where the
database is. If the Folder was created with the Create Customer Database option,
then it will be under \CUSTOMERS. If a folder doesn't exist by that name, then a
Directory Selection Dialog will be displayed to assist you in finding the correct
Folder.
N.B. POSUtility will not start if a 'POSUtility.mdb' does not exist in the program
directory.
Create Customer Database
This option allows you to create and organise different databases.  The starting
path for 
POSUtility
 is \CUSTOMERS.  NB. This will be created on the drive where
POSUtility
 was installed.  An entry form will be displayed into which you can enter
a name for the Folder to be created under the starting path.  An empty
'POSUtility.mdb' will be copied to this Folder.  For further information, see Managing
Databases.
Export All RAM Data
The All RAM Data (this is a memory image of the ECR and Doesn't contain any
editable data!), that already exists in the database for an ECR can be exported to a
text file for easy emailing and duplication of the ECR.  The file created has a name
of the following format, XT<ecr_type>R<ecr_number>.ARE
Import All RAM Data
The data exported with the Export function above can be imported into the current
database.  You are given a choice of target ECR numbers.  The original number
(from the filename) is offered as a default.  You can change this number, making it
easy to duplicate ECR's having the same memory image.
Products Export/Import
The Product Data can be exported from the current database to a 'csv' file for
importing into other programs.  A subset of fields is exported, with the first record
containing the field names for your reference.  Default values are supplied for fields
