Checking your access privileges

When you open a folder on another computer, icons under the
title bar indicate the privileges that you do not have.

Linking programs

Some programs can exchange information directly with other
programs. For example, one program might be able to instruct
another program to add a row to a spreadsheet or change the font
size of a paragraph.

Programs implement linking in various ways and not all programs
have this capability. See the documentation that came with your
programs for more information.
