<< Click to Display Table of Contents >> Navigation:   Tools Menu > Interest File > Interest File Dialog > Degreee of Interest (Interest File)

 

The Degree of Interest field on the Interest File dialog allows you to specify just how interested a person might be in your church. To indicate the degree of interest, either type the degree in or open the drop-down list to select from a set of your own pre-determined items.

The Degree of Interest field is a "history list" field, meaning that it will remember all the unique choices that are entered. Once a choice has been entered, the drop-down menu will display the item, and it can be selected from the menu. Or, if you begin to type in the entry, if it finds a similar entry on the list already, you will be shown. If there is one, you won't have to complete typing the entry; just press Tab to keep the entry and move on.

The top 4 items on the menu are the most recently used items, and the items under the top 4 are all the items on the list.

To modify the list, you can either double-click within the Degree of Interest field itself, or click the Preferences button below and select Degree of Interest from the list of preferences you can set.

When the History List Maintenance dialog appears, you can add a new item by typing it in the box up above and then clicking the Save to List button, you can click on an item on the list and press Del to remove it, you can clear all items, insert a blank line, or sort the items all with a single button click. You can even drag-and-drop to re-order the list according to your needs.
