Where do you enter the runway heading into your AP CRS?

It depends on the aircraft......some are on the auto pilot panel next to the heading and some are on the (sugar) cant remember what the gauge is called that tells you your heading..... you just see CRS 340 (for example) .... there is no dial you just have to put your mouse over it and you will either see the + or - in the hand allowing you to change it.

Hope all that helped (if you can understand it???

If you're shooting a GPS approach, the final approach course will be displayed when you get to that leg.. (assuming you selected an approach).. And if you have the NAV/GPS switch on GPS, the VOR1 gauge (or HSI) will funciton as your localizer whether or not you've dialed in the runway heading... And how you dial that in depends on what plane you're flying..
