Indicates how to orient the panes in the System file. When this checkbox is selected, the System file is horizontally split. When this checkbox is cleared, it is vertically split. From an open System file, selecting View > Split Windows Vertically switches between clearing and selecting this checkbox. When multiple models are selected for use in the System file, this same command appears as a button in the Module Selections toolbar. For more information, see Module Selections Toolbar. Each time you select this command, the orientation is switched.

Indicates whether to use standard or cool controls are on forms. Cool controls have a flat look until you move the mouse cursor over them. When the mouse cursor is moved over a cool control, it becomes three-dimensional. When this checkbox is cleared (default), standard controls are used.

Indicates whether list fields are completed by showing the closest match to what you have so far typed. If codes and display text are both shown by the list selection control, you need only to enter the code for an item to locate it. When this checkbox is selected (default), matches are shown as you type. When this checkbox is cleared, no matches are shown as you type.
