You are probably itching to get on with the main business, but first there are a couple of things which affect the general appearance of hontreasurer.com which you may like to know.  You can skip this if you want (press Next) - just remember that there are facilities to change the look and feel of hontreasurer.com and come back here if you feel the need to change.

Click on the Preferences menu and select Change Fonts .... You can select different fonts for Labels, Input and Buttons. Experiment with what looks best and gives a good screen size - Lucida Sans 10 is a good choice on systems where it is available. Select the font, style and size and press Set. Repeat for the Labels and Buttons tabs. Then press Exit and the main screen will be redrawn with the chosen Font. Repeat this exercise until you have a choice you like. hontreasurer.com will remember that this is your choice so there is no need to reset the fonts each time to enter the system.

Also on the Preferences menu is the Set Look and Feel item. This will display the Look and Feels which are available on your system. Look and Feels affect the way the system displays all screens. Choose one and the whole appearance of the system will change - not always for the better!! But the system will remember your choice.

While you are here, you might as well set your email Preferences (Set email Preferences). WARNING: emailing is restricted in some versions. Take advice from your supervisor about the settings but they will normally be Protocol: SMTP; Server: as per your email client settings; Server Port Number: normally 25; From email Address: your own email address. Hint: put your email address in like this: Your Firstname Your Surname <your email address>. For example:
Fred Bloggs <fred@bloggs.com>. This will then display your name nicely on emails you send.
