1	DOCUMENTS
	The NOTEBOOK program for DOCUMENTS is designed to manage the index
of documents created using the word processing menu of the VAX Professional
Workstation.  It allows the documents entered to be listed and searched for
and allows entries to be easily deleted or modified as the documents status
changes.
2	IDENT
     Each document has a 1-9 character name or ID.  By default all documents
have a .RNO file type.  The WP menu keeps track of memos and letters and
automatically assigns them prefixes and sequence numbers.  These prefixes
and sequences numbers are joined to make up the document name.  Documents 
should be given unique names.  As long as all files are on a user's directory,
then WP will not create a document of the same name as a previous one without
warning the user.  However, if documents are filed in text libraries, no
check is made to insure that the name is not in use already in the library.
If the name was previously used, it is possible to overwrite a stored document
while storing a new document.  Moral.    Be careful.  
2	DATE_SENT
	Memos and letters always have a date sent.  Papers and reports also
have dates, generally when they are created.  However, using MODIFY, it is
easy to update the DATE_SENT field when the report is issued, or the paper
is sent off for publication so as to reflect a more relevant date.

	The Date Sent must be entered in DD-MMM-YY format.
2	TO_WHO
	All documents are directed at someone, even if it is only yourself.
You have up to 19 characters to specify the person, or organization toward 
whom the document is directed.
2	FROM_WHO
	All documents have an author.  Some have more.  However, for filing
purposes you have up to 19 characters to specify the author of the document.
2	WHERE_FILED
	Documents are generally stored on the users's directory during most
of their life.  However, if the directory gets crowded, or if some documents
need to be saved for an extended period of time, you can file the document
in a text library.  Doing so saves some disk space, and makes the directory
less cluttered.
2	TYPE
	Only 4 general types of documents are recognized:

	LETTER,  MEMO,  PAPER,  and  REPORT.

The document index indicates what type of document has been created and filed.
The WP menu keeps track of the last letter or memo sent and each time a new
one is sent automatically creates a new one with a new name.  The catagory of
PAPER and REPORT are for convenience and are identical except that the
document index is flagged with either the keyword PAPER or REPORT.  When
using NoteBook interactively, only LETER, MEMO, PAPER or REPORT are allowed
inputs for the Document Type entry.
2	TOPIC
	Every document has a topic. It must be less than 70 characters long.
The topic (be it memo topic, paper title, purpose of letter) is very useful
for use with the NoteBook search command because key words can be searched
for.
