Creating Folders 

To create a new folder: 

There are two ways to create a new folder:

   *   At the Cabinet > prompt type CREATE Return and then type a name
       for the folder and press Return.

   *   You can also create new folders when you copy or move an item from
       your In Tray, Out Tray, Pending Tray, Work Area, Calendar or even
       from a different folder.  If you type the name of a non-existent
       folder HP Desk asks if you want to create a folder of that name.
       For example:

            Intray > MOVE "minutes" TO "project" Return 
            I cannot find a suitable "project"
            Do you wish to create it? (No) >> YES Return 

To create a folder within a folder: 

There are two ways of creating a folder within a folder:

   *   OPEN the folder and then type CREATE Return and the name of the
       new folder and press Return 

   *   Copy or move a message or item to a non-existent folder in an
       existing folder.  For example:

            Intray > MOVE "pr" TO "meeting" of "project" Return 
            I cannot find a suitable "meeting"
            Do you wish to create it? (No) >> YES Return 

       Further Information 

   *   If you forget the name of a folder you can ask HP Desk to list
       your folders by typing " " without a folder name.  For example:

            Intray > COPY 1 TO " " Return 

            Intray > COPY 1 TO " " OF "project" Return 

   *   If you do not specify a folder name when you move or copy a
       message to your Filing Cabinet, HP Desk asks if you want to put
       incoming messages in the Incoming Day File, and outgoing messages
       in the Outgoing Day File.

   *   Once you have moved or copied an item to the Filing Cabinet, you
       cannot edit it or add to it.  If you need to make any changes to a
       filed item, move it to the Work Area.

   *   If you have HP File/Library available on your system you can also
       use HP Desk's community filing area.  See the reference book Using 
       HP File/Library for details.
