Rebuild Option
--------------
If you have an error reported from Mentor, follow this process:
   try to simply reopen the file - Mentor may auto repair itself
   if the file opens but the problem persists, use CTRL+SHIFT+J
   if the file will not open, select "rebuild" from the error dialog
The rebuild option causes the database to be rebuilt (then repaired)
when it is next opened (Mentor exits when you press the button).

This facility has been provided due to index corruptions caused by the 
operating system when the system runs out of memory.

New Features
------------
Many more new features are planned - these will form part of later releases.
These include:
   Help (manual) available from within Mentor
   Synchronise with Agenda
   Printing
