4. File Filter Displays all or a subset of fi les on the current
directory. You can set a mask on the types of fi les
you want to display. For example, if you only want

all fi les. When you select the File Filter utility, the

the characters ? (for only one character) and * (for any
number of characters) in the fi lename. An extension
can be used to specify a group of fi les.
