I can attest to the speed of movement. Before Y2K, I saw ladies enter data
very easily on a DOS based application. They were very proficient. The
software that replaced the DOS system was Y2K enabled. Maybe just barely,
To move from field to field, one hand moved from keyboard to mouse. Move
to next fied. Click in the box. Hand moved back to keyboard. It was
painful to watch. That version was a slap-dash implementation. It was
replaced a year later with more reasonable access. But, it was never as
quick or as smmoth as the DOS version. As bad as the initial version was,
another vendor's concept was even worse and was ten times the cost. It
seems like neither product was designed with end user efficiency in mind.
