Changes implemented the week of 06/18/2006

System-Wide

    Launch a New Internet Explorer Window from the MLS Toolbar – For your convenience, a new button in the MLS toolbar opens a new Internet Explorer (IE) browser window that you can use to navigate to any Web site! This handy feature saves you time, since you do not have to minimize the MLS to locate the IE shortcut on your desktop.

 
                                 

NOTE: Windows launched using this button include all standard IE toolbars and elements.

Home Page

    Search Button on the Listing Locator Module Improved – The Search button on the Listing Locator now becomes available only after search criteria has been entered into one of the available fields.

Displays

    Icons Visually Identify Selection Options – The Selection Options area of the Options pane lets you perform several tasks, such as checking (selecting) listings, and deleting or hiding listings from your view. Small icons have been added to provide a visual cue for each available function.

    “Delete All Unchecked” Enhanced for Multiple Property Types – The Delete All Unchecked link (in the Selection Options area of the Options pane) has been improved to give you more control when viewing listings across multiple property types. When your search results (or cart) include multiple property type tabs, the link now displays as “Delete Unchecked: All   Prop Type.” This lets you specify whether you want to delete all unchecked listings or just those in the active property type tab.

PDA Interface

    Tap Phone Numbers for Automatic Dialing – You can now tap phone numbers displayed in the MLS PDA interface to automatically dial them from your PDA phone. This includes agent and office phone numbers, as well as your contacts' phone numbers.

Broadcast Notices

    Print Button Added to Broadcast Notices – A Print button is now included for broadcast notices that display after you log on, allowing you to quickly print the notices if desired. This new button displays to the right of the OK and Read Later buttons.

NOTE: To print all broadcast notices within a specified date range, select Admin > Broadcast Notices. Modify the date range in the Filters area at the top of the page if necessary, and then click the print button on the MLS toolbar .

Online Help

    Online Help Streamlined and Easier to Read – All instructional topics in the Online Help system are now presented in a numbered step-by-step format, and all action steps (such as buttons and links) display in bold. In addition, more visual aids have been added, making it easier to recognize elements discussed in the topic. All of these changes are designed to make reading Online Help faster and easier.  

Staff Only Functions

    Revise MLS Message now Available from the Staff Tools Module – MLS Staff with appropriate rights can now quickly access the Revise MLS Message page right from the Staff Tools module on the MLS Home page.
