Title: RE: Simple Verbiage Question

if part of your standard audience is warehouse workers, what about something a bit more direct, something like this, perhaps....

<screen cap>
<b>Use this screen to:</b>
<li>Choose a row, level, and pallet for the item you're loading.
<li>Change the row, level, and pallet for an item.
<li>Launch soviet warheads.

heck, I wonder if I can use this format in some of my doc. Thanks Cirrus!
