Hi Darrell,
DS> I emailed Mario and he is no longer developing FMS.
Shoot! FMS is good, but could be a whole lot better. On the other
hand, I can understand his position. I was about only the fourth person to
register.
DS> The main problem is "hurling" files from one area to
DS> another. Can you help?
I think so. What I do is open the file area (Files.BBS) that I want
to move files from first. I adjust the size and position of the just opened
window so I can see all the other file areas [Area Names (at least) &
descrip- tions)]. I make sure the file area that I want to move the file(s)
to is showing. I then highlight the file(s) and drag it to the area name
where I want to put the file(s). Using + Left Mouse button, I can
highlight a number of different files at one time and move them as a group to
the new area. I close the Files.BBS window and say "yes" to the confirm
question. I usually end up opening the "new area" and sort it by file name
too.
You have to be carefull and not do a whole bunch of files as a group
at one time. I usually do no more than ten or fifteen. I also usually only
do a couple of areas at one time and then exit the program so everything can
get saved properly. After exiting, do a FBP on the local areas and you'll be
all set.
Hope this helps. If you need more help, Netmail me and I'll gladly
try to help you out. Good luck!
Victor
