• Even in the case of direct input, the data may look slightly different in the Input Area andin the cell. This is because this wordprocessor allows you to control the layout of the data in the cells. For example, you may want a cell to appear on screen in bold. The data appears in bold in the cell, and in normal face in the Input Area. JTCII1,1) Entering and Editing Data To enter data in an empty cell, select that cell and type the data. A small cursor (the input cursor) appears in the Input Area. Press RETURN when you finish. The data appears in the cell. Proceed exactly the same way to replace old data with new data. The old data disappears from the Input Area as soon as you start typing. The new data appears in the cell when you press RETURN after retyping. NOTE: If you type a character key while moving through the grid, the word processor switches to the Input/Edit mode, clears the contents of the Input Area and displays the character that you typed. If you press RETURN at this step, the character you typed replaces the old data. To avoid this, press CANCEL instead ofRETURN. This restores the original data andreturns the word processor to the Command mode. To edit old data without deleting it, first press TAB. The cursor appears in the Input Area and you can edit the data. Press RETURN when the data is edited. NOTES: • After typing or editing in the Input Area, press -> , T , or1 instead ofRETURN. These keys enter the data, return to the Command mode, and move the cursor one position in the direction of the arrow on the grid. • In Input/Edit mode, press to move the cursor across the data in the Input Area. However, -> enters the data as explained above ifyou try to move past the last character. Press CODE + EXPR to move to the first character, or CODE + RELOC to move to the last one. Spreadsheet 187

Even
in
the
case
of
direct
input,
the
data
may
look
slightly
different
in
the
Input
Area
and
in
the
cell.
This
is
because
this
word
processor
allows
you
to
control
the
layout
of
the
data
in
the
cells.
For
example,
you
may
want
a
cell
to
appear
on
screen
in
bold.
The
data
appears
in
bold
in
the
cell,
and
in
normal
face
in
the
Input
Area.
JTCII1,1)
Entering
and
Editing
Data
To
enter
data
in
an
empty
cell,
select
that
cell
and
type
the
data.
A
small
cursor
(the
input
cursor)
appears
in
the
Input
Area.
Press
RETURN
when
you
finish.
The
data
appears
in
the
cell.
Proceed
exactly
the
same
way
to
replace
old
data
with
new
data.
The
old
data
disappears
from
the
Input
Area
as
soon
as
you
start
typing.
The
new
data
appears
in
the
cell
when
you
press
RETURN
after
retyping.
NOTE:
If
you
type
a
character
key
while
moving
through
the
grid,
the
word
processor
switches
to
the
Input/Edit
mode,
clears
the
contents
of
the
Input
Area
and
displays
the
character
that
you
typed.
If
you
press
RETURN
at
this
step,
the
character
you
typed
replaces
the
old
data.
To
avoid
this,
press
CANCEL
instead
of
RETURN.
This
restores
the
original
data
and
returns
the
word
processor
to
the
Command
mode.
To
edit
old
data
without
deleting
it,
first
press
TAB.
The
cursor
appears
in
the
Input
Area
and
you
can
edit
the
data.
Press
RETURN
when
the
data
is
edited.
NOTES:
After
typing
or
editing
in
the
Input
Area,
press
—>
,
T
,
or
1
instead
of
RETURN.
These
keys
enter
the
data,
return
to
the
Command
mode,
and
move
the
cursor
one
position
in
the
direction
of
the
arrow
on
the
grid.
In
Input/Edit
mode,
press
<—
and
---->
to
move
the
cursor
across
the
data
in
the
Input
Area.
However,
—>
enters
the
data
as
explained
above
if
you
try
to
move
past
the
last
character.
Press
CODE
+
EXPR
to
move
to
the
first
character,
or
CODE
+
RELOC
to
move
to
the
last
one.
