Copying Items into and out of HP Desk 

You can copy parts of messages or other items out of HP Desk.  You can
also copy Non-HP Desk files into your Work Area, or into an open message,
package or folder that you have created.

To copy part of a message out of HP Desk: 

       Open the message and type COPY followed by the number of the part
       you wish to copy.  Then type TO and a new file name (enclosed in
       parenthesis) and press Return.  For example:

            MESSAGE > COPY 2 TO (minutes) Return 

       Further Information 

   *   You can copy only part of a message out of HP Desk; you cannot
       copy a whole message.

To copy a file into HP Desk: 

   *   Type COPY FROM followed by the file name (enclosed in
       parenthesis).  Press Return.  For example:

            MESSAGE > COPY FROM (filea) Return 

       HP Desk asks if you want to copy TDP/3000 and Edit/3000 files into
       HP Desk as Text documents.

   *   To copy a file into HP Desk as a text item, type COPY TEXT FROM
       For example:

            Workarea > COPY TEXT FROM (tdpdoc) Return 

       Further Information 

   *   You can also copy HP Slate and HP Word files as Text documents,
       but then you will not be able to edit the files using HP Slate or
       HP Word.

   *   You may only copy information from files to which you have read
       access.  If you are not sure about this, consult your HP Desk
       System Administrator.
