Using Office Commands
Deleting Several Folders and Files
To delete several folders and files:
1 Open or resume the folder containing the
folders and files you want to delete.
2 Point to the first folder or file you want to
delete and press <Mark>.
3 Continue pointing and pressing <B3> or <Mark>
until you have highlighted all the folders
and files you want to delete.
4 Press <Dlete> or select IDeletel from the
Commands menu.
The previously highlighted folders and files are moved
to the Wastebasket.
Deleting Files from the Wastebasket
Because all deleted folders and files are moved to the
Wastebasket, you are given a second chance to be sure
you no longer want these objects. You can retrieve
files from the Wastebasket by moving them back to any
folder. To do this, open the Wastebasket and use the
Move command. Once a folder or file is deleted from
the Wastebasket, it is deleted from the system.
You should clear out your Wastebasket periodically to
clear space on your hard disk. You can choose to clear
your Wastebasket automatically by using the Empty
Wastebasket? selection of the Office Preferences form.
See "Changing User Preferences" in this section of the
manual for more information.
