• Picture page: This page will accommodate any .jpg picture you want associated with each syndrome.  Here you can include a representative tongue picture, facial diagnosis, pulse wave pattern or perhaps a picture of the ingredients of the most common treatment formula.  It's completely up to you how you use your picture page
  
  
• <- AND ->: These buttons allow you to navigate the various pages like you would a web page with a web browser using the Back and Forward buttons
  
  
• Results page: This page stores the results of your last search in a nice, organized, sorted list. One click of a syndrome takes you right to it! This list also allows you to compare and contrast different syndromes based on your searching criteria without having to re-run a search.
  
  
• Single Search: This allows you to search for ANY text in your database. So, finding all the syndromes that, have "Dizziness" as a symptom, is a snap. tcmDiag will produce a "Results" list of all the Syndromes that contain your search term AND which page the search term was found on - then from there, a single click brings you right to that page. Fast and easy or what?
  
  
• Quick Search List: This unique feature gives you the ability to store your frequently typed search terms. Then with two clicks, you can run the search again, all without re-typing which saves you a tremendous amount of time especially when you are with a patient
  
  
• List All: This button provides you with a organized and sorted list of all the Syndromes in your database
  
  
• Smart Searching: There is intelligence built into tcmDiag. For example, you are looking at the Western page and notice "Anemia" is listed. You want to find all the syndromes that have this western diagnosis, so what do you do? Easy, just use the stylus to highlight "Anemia" and click the Search button. Instantly you could have a list with several syndromes that share this diagnosis.  Give it a try!
  
  
• Advanced Multi-Search:
  • Multi-Search allows you to run one search using up to 3 different keywords.  This is an "AND" search.  What is meant by this is that Search Term 1 AND Search Term 2 AND Search Term 3 should appear together.  This makes searching through your database very powerful.  Now you can search for such keywords as "Pale Tongue" AND "Dizziness" and your results will display records that contain both terms.
  • There are 2 options you have as well. 
    • Terms must appear on the SAME Page:  this means that out of the 8 pages (i.e. General s/s, Etiology, Western, etc.), your keywords must appear within the same page.  Your results will be returned according to which page your terms were found on - then a single click will take you right to that page.
    • Terms can be on ANY Page:  this means that the entire record (Zang-Fu syndrome) is searched for your keywords and then the results will be returned according to which record contains all of your keywords.  Ex.  you could search for "Pale" and "Anemia".  "Pale" would most likely be on a General S/S page (i.e. pale tongue) and "Anemia" would more than likely be on a Western page - so your results would return records like "Heart Blood Deficiency", "Heart Yin Deficiency", etc.
      
      
• TcmDiag also incorporates Zap Power-Off, so you can either exit tcmDiag or Turn Off your device, all from the Menu. Saving a lot of wear-and-tear on your Power Button.
