Psion Teklogix NETBOOK PRO User Manual

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.

5.8 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.
