         <P><B><FONT SIZE="+1">Master Default Margin<BR>
         
         </FONT></B>If an item, or an item's category, has no margin
         assigned to it, then the Master Default Margin is what is
         used to compute the item's sell price (See the Chapter on
         QuoteMaker's built-in Margin Processor for more info)<BR>

         SIZE="+2"><BR>
         
         </FONT></B>In "Normal" mode QuoteMaker is fully functional.
         In "Protected" mode the user is unable to view or edit cost
         and margin information. This is useful for interactively
         working with a client. Do not, however, leave the client
         alone with your newton as they could easily defeat this
         feature.<BR>
         
         <BR>
         
         <B><FONT SIZE="+1">Display Line Item Prices<BR>
         
         </FONT></B>Turning this option off only shows the totals for
         categories but not the prices for line items. This is also
         useful for working with clients<BR>
         
         <BR>
         
         <B><FONT SIZE="+1">Default New Item Margin</FONT></B><BR>
         
         If this is set to "None", than any new items added to a
         product database will be assigned an empty margin. This will
         mean that their sell price will be based on the category
         and/or master default margin that they are assigned to. By
         seting this to "List", then sell price of any new items
         added to a price database will be set to the list or retail
         price.<BR>
         
         <BR>
         
         <B><FONT SIZE="+1">Sort Databases By</FONT></B><BR>
         
         In the product search screen, the databases can be set to
         display in order of creation or alphabetically depending on
         this setting.<BR>
         
         <BR>
         
         <B><FONT SIZE="+1">Always Add to Internal
         Store</FONT></B><BR>
         
         This is a standard Newton feature that tells the Newton to
         only store Quotes that you create on the Newton's internal
         memory. It has no effect on the behavior of price databases,
         only the Quotes you create using QuoteMaker<BR>
         
         <BR>
         
         <B><FONT SIZE="+1">Security Code</FONT></B><BR>
         
         When using QuoteMaker's automated price updating feature via
         email, the security code prevents unauthorized users from
         trying to tamper with your data by sending unauthorized
         data. If the security code in the price file update does not
         match the one entered in your preferences, the price update
         will be rejected.<BR>
         
         <BR>
         
         <B><FONT SIZE="+1">Auto Delivery Status</FONT></B><BR>
         
         If this is enabled, then every night at 1 AM in the morning
         QuoteMaker will take any Quotes flagged for auto-delivery
         and post them in the desired format for delivery by the
         Newton 2000's EnRoute EMAIL client. Currently, this is the
         only email client supported by QuoteMaker. By setting
         EnRoute to auto-connect to the internet sometime after 1 AM,
         you can achive automated submission of your quotes to
         wherever you like.<BR>

         <B><FONT SIZE="+1">Default Quote Status</FONT></B><BR>
