Custom Menu Links

This screen allows you create links to other files or functions in your computer network and have them displayed under their own menu within Ostendo.   Upon creation of the first ‘Link’ record a menu heading called ‘Custom’ will appear on the top toolbar and the link will be displayed in the drop-down list under it.  

Entry and Display fields

Caption: Enter the name of the Link.  This name will appear in the drop-down list under the ‘Custom’ menu

File Name: This is the full path to the documents, spreadsheet, or program that you are linking to.  Click on the three dots to bring up a panel.  Within that panel locate the path to the file.  The file format can be any file extension recognised by your computer (Example, .doc for document, .exe for a program, etc)

Save: This will save the current dates without exiting the screen

Cancel: Any changes made to a date since the last time the ‘Save’ Button was pressed will be lost and the dates will revert to it’s pre-change position.
