Hi Dorathea,
When you save your labelled graphics, you have an option to consider: This
is whether you save them in the Default Graphics file, the file relating to
the application or both. Think about this as you do them. I generally
find it best to save within the application file but sometimes a graphic
can be universaly relevant.
Watch too for those graphics which change numbers as soon as the mouse sits
upon them. They're a pain..
Finally, although it's a good practice to label graphics in an application
and you may have to use a number of these, look for all key strokes you can
find because generally they're quicker and easier for you.
Hope this helps.
