                                 Use this session to create and maintain text groups.</Paragraph>

		<GeneralSection><Paragraph class="Default">Text groups are used to classify texts into groups. You can define text groups according to the function of the texts and link them as default to text fields or to normal users.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">For every text group you must specify a default window type as well as a text editor. You can select a simple editor such as the ERP LN editor or the multiline editor, but you can also use Microsoft Word with or without Rich Text Format.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">The text group’s text window size is shown in the grid. For example, [2,3,80x25]. This means that you can start writing text on the second row, third column with a maximum of 80 characters per line, and a maximum of 25 lines per text window.</Paragraph>
