- Click OK and if there are no duplicate records, you will be taken to the Title field. You can either use the drop down list, or just type the title in. Hit the <enter>
key. The gender field will be filled in for you if the title is
recognised. If not, you will have to set the gender by clicking with
your mouse appropriately.
- Enter an occupation, and hit <enter>.
A list of occupations will be brought up if there is a match. Select
the one you want, or close the list down, and use the <tab> key to accept it as it is.
- On the SSN/NHI field, use the <enter> key to move to the Address block.
