1. 1. - Update Interval - This turns on the defined update interval. When the specified time passes, the software will pause for a moment as it updates its contents with the latest statistical data from the database.

      - Minutes and Seconds - These boxes define the time that must pass before an update occurs.

      - Default - This resets the update interval to the default time of zero.

      - Save - This button does not immediately apply any changes you have made; instead, it stores the changes applying them when you next restart the software.

      - Close - This closes this dialog box.

      - Apply - This applies your changes only temporarily, allowing you to preview the time before clicking Save. If you only click Apply and then Close, the update interval will continue to function for that part until you completely close the software.

Manually - This performs a manual update of the software with the latest database information.
