Conclusion

The exercises above have illustrated the major features of Chronolator. Working through them should make you confident in using it for your own reviews. Detailed information about the tools available on the Chronolator toolbar in a chronology document can be found in Using Chronolator Documents, which also includes some information about working with Word tables in general for those who are unfamiliar with them.

The sample tables in the exercises all use the same columns and headings. Please note that Chronolator allows the Case Review Administrator to decide what columns are used in any particular review. How this is done is described in  Setting Up Chronolator Documents.
