-===== Table of contents =====+System Manager, as the name implies, is a utility designed to help you manage  
 +your system.  Not only can you make global changes to the users file, but you  
 +can also access other frequently used utilities such as PCBSetup and  
 +PCBFiler.
  
 +There are three ways that you can access System Manager:
 +
 +  * From the call waiting screen, select PCBSysMgr.
 +  * While logged in locally (not with the /LOCALON switch for PCBoard), you can press ALT-S.
 +  * From the DOS prompt you can load PCBSM.EXE.  If a PCBOARD.DAT file cannot be found in the current directory and you have not used the /FILE command line parameter, you will receive an error message stating that PCBOARD.DAT could not be found.
 +
 +Once System Manager is loaded, you will see the Main Menu.  The various 
 +function of system manager are available from these menu options.  To select 
 +a particular option, press the letter at the beginning of the line, or move 
 +the currently highlighted option using the cursor keys and press ENTER to 
 +select the option.  If you make a mistake, you can always use the ESC to go 
 +back to the previous menu.
 +
 +This section will describe each menu item in detail including any sub-menus.  
 +In addition, the command line parameters for System Manager are described in 
 +detailed at the end of this chapter.
