Getting Familiar with Overlay Selectors
The following makes use of the demo spool entry delivered with InterForm400
®
. You can
print this from the menu 12. Service Functions under the administration menu.
Our intention is to make a selector which prints all letters of the spool entry regarding the
MateSert/400 driver with the overlay IF400DEMO delivered with this system. For pages
regarding InterForm we want to use the modified version MYDEMO which was created in
section Getting Familiar with Overlays. 
Step 1. Placing overlays in One File set
As one selector is limited to operate with overlays from the same file set, we will first make
a copy of the overlay IF400DEMO from fileset SAMPLE into file set TEST. First make
sure you are standing in file set TEST (check upper right corner). If not, you should
change file set with option 8 on the main menu.
Enter option 1. Design Overlays on the main menu

 F3=Exit             F4=List overlays                              F12=Cancel   
Here we can type in the same name as the overlay in file set SAMPLE. There will be no
conflict of names, as they are located in separate file sets.
