Managing folders

To move one or more folders or files from one location to another:

1.First highlight the file(s) or folder(s) to select them. To highlight a consecutive list of files or folders, highlight the first one, hold down the Shift key, and then highlight the last one. To select items that are not consecutive, hold down the Ctrl key and tap each file/folder in turn.

To select all the files/folders in the current folder, use the Select all command on the Edit menu. To deselect items, press the Esc key.

2.Select the Cut (move) command from the Edit menu. A dotted line appears round the file/folder icon(s).

3.Go to the disk drive and open the folder into which the highlighted items are to be moved.

4.Select the Paste command from the Edit menu.

Note: Moving a folder also moves all the files within that folder.

Note: If you move (or rename) your most recently opened Agenda or Data file, you should open it again by selecting it from the System screen, rather than tapping the Agenda or Data program icon. Tapping on the program icon will create a new Agenda or Data file.

∙To copy a file or folder, or multiple files/folders to a different folder: follow the earlier instructions, but select the Copy as opposed to the Cut (move) command from the Edit menu.

∙To make a copy of a file or folder within the same folder: highlight it on the System screen and select the Copy command followed by the Paste command. A new file is automatically created for you using the following naming convention (with Word as the example): Word(01), Word(02), etc. You can rename the file or folder later if you wish.

∙To copy the entire contents of a disk to a folder on another disk: e.g. to back up the entire contents of your Internal disk (‘C’) to a backup folder on a Memory disk (‘D’), select Copy disk from the Disk menu.

∙To rename a single file or folder: highlight it, select Rename from the File menu, and then type in a new name.

∙To rename a disk: select Name disk from the Disk menu.

∙To remove one or more files or folders: first highlight them and then either press the Delete key, or select the Delete command from the File menu.

Important: If you are deleting folders, remember that the entire contents of the folders (including all the other folders contained within them and all their files) will also be deleted.
