C GUI Quick Reference

Most of the instructions in this guide describe how to perform Oracle Thesaurus Management System (TMS) functions by choosing menu paths in TMS windows. There are, however, many functions that you can execute in more than one way: in addition to the menu path, TMS provides a button or a keyboard shortcut for the same function.

Each quick reference section describes the functions that you can perform in TMS and, where applicable, the alternate methods you can use to execute that function. They are arranged in alphabetical order by function. Because TMS uses two sets of icons (one for standard TMS windows and another for batch job and report windows), there are two quick reference sections:

• Quick Reference for TMS Windows

• Quick Reference for Batch Job and Reports Windows

Only icons that are different from standard TMS windows are included in the latter section. For further information on the TMS graphic user interface, see Chapter 2, "Common Functions."
