3.4  Text Level

[man-text-required]

Click on Add Text to open the form on which you'll enter the information regarding a part's text(s). Enter data for the first text. Click on Save & Close (or click on Cancel, and the record segment disappears permanently).  Repeat Add Text as often as there are texts in the manuscript.  Again, if at a later date you realize that there are more or fewer texts than originally entered, new records can be added or extant records deleted, as long as any eventual children of Text (i.e. the Images) are reassigned first.  The database won't allow orphans, even if you attempt that cruelty.
