FILE FILE MANAGEMENT
 
Procedures: <Managing files>
 
Use the File File Management command to search
through any directory in your system to find
files that meet specific criteria.
 
■ If you know the location of a document, it is
  quicker to open it with the File Open command.
 
■ To use the file management feature most
  effectively, learn how your operating system
  uses directories, filenames, and <paths>.
  For information, see your DOS or OS/2
  documentation.
 
■ When you use the file management feature,
  follow these general guidelines:
  * Make sure document summary information
    includes information you want to use as the
    key to a search.
  * Choose Search in the File Management dialog
    box to specify search criteria and display
    the list of documents meeting the criteria.
  * Once a list of documents is displayed, you
    can select a single document to work with or
    mark a group of documents.
 
■ Mark the documents you want to work with as
  follows:
  * Move the cursor to the document name and
    press Spacebar. You can mark as many
    documents as you like.
  * Mark all displayed documents by pressing
    Ctrl+Spacebar.
  * To remove a mark from a document, move the
    cursor to the document name and press
    Spacebar.
  * To remove the mark from all marked documents,
    press Ctrl+Spacebar.
 
■ Word adds an asterisk(*) at the beginning of
  the document name to show that the document has
  been marked.
