No, I mean how the operator enters call signs and QSO's once someone has set it up for 
him. Lots of folks who work Field Day don't work many other contests and may not be 
familiar with logging programs in general or WriteLog in particular. There are certain 
cursor movement rules, how the function keys work depending on where the cursor is, etc. 

In the middle of a contest, no one has time to read the manual (which doesn't exist 
anyway) or get a lesson -- what they need is a quick summary sheet of how the software 
works.
