The author's instructions
Getting Started

Welcome to the World of Lotus 1-2-3 in the Lab.   We are sure
you will  find  these Lotus 1-2-3 Macros and Templates
valuable  and thought  provoking.   There are many ways to use
these Macros and Templates.  Here are a few examples:

*   Immediately   -  They can be used immediately  to  solve
the problem they were developed to solve.  You can enter new
raw data values and obtain a new report or graph.

*    Customize  -  You can customize them to perfectly meet
your needs.   A Macro or Template may perform 70,  80 or 90
percent of what you need,  you can customize that macro or
template and  get exactly what you want.

*   Combine   -  You can combine one or more of  these
templates with  your own templates to perform new functions,
reporting and graphs.

*    Training  - Learn new applications of Lotus 1-2-3  by
using these macros and templates.   See how specific Lotus
commands can be used to perform various laboratory reporting
and graphics.

*  New  Ideas - Some of these macros and templates  will
perform tasks you never thought Lotus 1-2-3 could perform.

What You Will Need

To  use these Macros and Templates you will need an IBM  PC,
XT, AT,  PS/2, or IBM compatible computer with the ability to
perform graphics.   You  will  need a copy of Lotus 1-2-3
version  2  or greater.  If you do not have Lotus 1-2-3 version
2, you can still upgrade  from version 1A for $150.   Contact
Lotus Development on how to upgrade your copy of Lotus 1-2-3.

How to Use the Macros and Templates

Each  of  the Macros and Templates is on disk and ready  to
use. Load Lotus 1-2-3 and use the command:

Send to my palmtop

The palmtop must be waiting before you press the button, or the transfer will fail. It is the palmtop that announces it is ready, not the other way round.
