Buttons and Hot Key Commands

To perform actions when working in Odyssey, click buttons such as Save, Search, Clear, and Exit. Use keyboard commands (ALT + letter) to complete these functions instead of using the mouse. When a hot key option is available, the letter you should press is underlined. For example, when Search is displayed on a screen or dialog box, hold down the ALT key and press S to conduct the search.
