Adding a user
To add a user, open the contact list, select the Edit | Contact list menu item (), click the button (Add new user), enter the user's name and click "OK". Note: in real life different people can have the same names; that's why WinCatalog Light lets you create different users with the same names.
Removing a user
To remove a user, open the contact list, select the user you want to remove and click the button (Remove the selected user). Note: if you remove a user, all disks lent to this user will be automatically marked as returned to you. The history of lending disks to this particular user will also be lost.
Editing the user data
To edit the user data, open the contact list, select the user, and enter the text in the input field on the right. To apply the changes, you can just close the contact list or select another user.
