+====== Current program menus ======
+Note: the option names highlighted in red below are saved each time the program closes.
+__File menu__
+  * Open|F3 - load a template into the editor
+  * Save - save the current template (Be careful! recommend using 'Save As' until you have tested a reload)
+  * Save As|F2 - save the current template to a different filename
+  * The last file opened will appear at the bottom of this menu to facilitate a quick restart
+If you have edited a master set to the point where it will no longer load :-(, you can retrieve a fresh copy of it from the 'defaults' folder((C:\Program Files\TMQ\RIMMF\defaults))
+__Edit menu__
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Template mode</span></html> - Edit a template (assumes no data entry)
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Record mode</span></html> - Create a record (assumes no changes to template)
+  * Hide empty fields - TBA; in Record mode, remove rows that do not contain data entry
+  * Search bar|F4 - open (or close) the search panel at the bottom of the window
+__View menu__
+  * Expand/Collapse All - Fully expand (or collpase) the RIMMF hierarchy
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Expand By Level</span></html> - expand the grid to a precise level
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Highlight by level</span></html> - Experimental - change the font, style, etc., slightly for each level
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Gridlines</span></html> - Enable the display of gridlines; this may make it easier to see what you are doing
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Wordwrap</span></html> - Turn on wordwrap in either or both of the 'RDA Element' and 'Text' columns. Note: recommend only doing this in the text column, and using the mouseover on the RDA column to view the complete caption.
+  * Restore view defaults - Reset the following column settings: visibility, order, width, sorted.
+__Options__
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Brief captions</span></html> - Show only brief captions (the complete caption will be shown when the mouse hovers over an 'RDA Element' cell). Note there are two caption columns; one contains the complete RDA caption and the other contains a brief version of it.
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Check lists on startup</span></html> - Goto metadataregistry.org and refresh all value lists when the program starts
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Font</span></html> - Change the Font on the form
+  * Un-Tree - Use in Template mode if you want to see all of the columns for branch (or group) nodes; this option will try to flatten the tree into a grid, so to speak.
+  * Renumber nodes - Programmer's use only (will be removed once its debugged)
+__Help__
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">One-click help</span></html> - if selected simply clicking on an RDA Element caption will browse to the rule for that element (if there is one); otherwise, the browser will only launch when you press <F1>. Note: one-click Help will browse to the rule--if one exists--even if no rule is visible in the RDA Rule column (as for  group/branch nodes)
+  * <html><span style="color:red;">Use built-in browser</span></html> - if selected the program will use its own browser window for RDA Help. This may eliminate problems with the RDA Toolkit messages about 'subscription limit' reached, as the built-in browser always loads each page into the same window. If using the built-in browser, use the 'Next/Prev' buttons at the bottom of the form to navigate through your history list; the arrow buttons from the toolkit (at the top of the page) do not work inside this frame.
