Setup - Start Up Options
Window Book recommends that you take advantage of the default view option of Advanced Navigator. It offers you the ability to edit multiple Mail.dat files that make up a job. Instead of having to go into each separate file view, this shows it in one screen and makes editing multiple fields much quicker than going into each individual view. However, if you have a situation where specific users will only go into one area, then there are several start up view options.
