Introduction

Hansa allows you to work with several windows on the screen at the same time. The window that is currently in use is known as the 'active window'. That is the uppermost window, where the title bar is not dimmed.

In the Windows version you can "Iconise" a window, i.e. shrink it to an icon on the screen, by clicking the button in its top right hand corner (shown above). The window can be re-opened by clicking the button again.

You can move the active window by dragging the title bar, and change its size by dragging the size box in the bottom right-hand corner. Close the window with the close box. On the Macintosh, clicking the close box of a window while holding down the Alt key will close all windows. In addition, you can save attributes such as size, sort order and position for a particular window using the Window menu.

!	Hansa allows you to have up to 100 windows open at the same time. It is however a good habit to close a window when it is no longer needed. Too many open windows may become confusing.

There are six types of window:

1. Browse windows
   

2. Record windows
   

3. Report windows
   

4. List windows
   

5. Specification windows
   

6. File dialogue windows
