Chapter 4: Files, Folders, and Programs

Managing Folders

Files that have been created on a PC and then transferred to the NETBOOK PRO will also be “read-only” files.

Note: If you transfer a “read-only” file to another machine, it can be viewed, and the “read-only” attribute can be removed.

4.8 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. Drag with the stylus to select more than one file.

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 command from the Edit menu. A dotted line appears around the file/folder icon(s).

3.Go to 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.

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 command from the Edit menu.

To make a copy of a file or folder within the same folder:

highlight it and select the Copy command followed by the Paste command. A new file is automatically created for you using the following naming convention (with Wordpad as the example): Copy of Doc1, etc. You can rename the file or folder later if you wish.

To rename a single file or folder:

right-click, select Rename from the context menu, and then type in a new name.

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. You can also right-click and select Delete.
