New Name.  Type the new name for the file and hit RETURN.  The
name will be changed and will also change position to keep the
list in alphabetical order.
     4, Print--Place your cursor on the file you wish printed and
type 4.  The Status Line reads Pages: (all).  If you want the
whole document printed, hit RETURN.  If you want only a specific
page, type the number of that page.  If you created this file on
another computer and printer, the Status Line will tell you so
and ask if the printer file should be reformatted.  Usually the
answer is Y (Yes).
     5, Short/Long Display-5.1 version of WP gives you the option
of naming files with a longer, more descriptive title of about 63
characters.  This Function will show either the Short or Long
Display of the file title.
     6, allows you to look within a document or documents to
check whether that is the file or files you need.  The Status
Line gives you the choice of looking at the next or previous
document or, by hitting RETURN, to return to the LIST.
     7, Other Directory--This gives you the choice of bringing in
another directory.  Type 7. Read the Status Line which gives you
the name of the current directory and asks for the name of a new
directory.  Type the name of another directory and press RETURN. 
The new directory appears on the screen.
     8, Copy--It  does just that--copies a file from the current
directory to a designated disk or another directory.
     9, Find--It will search and find a particular file.  Answer
the questions asked in your Status Line: choose 1 for Word; type
part of the name of the file you are looking for.  The cursor
will move to that file if it exists.  Explore the other choices
in this function.  Remember, you can always return to the
document or to the directory.  Press F1 to cancel the command,
press SPACE to return to the document you are working on.
     N, Name Search--This is used in a long directory.
   (Marie Porter has retired from her work on this newsletter,
but was the essential element in getting it off the ground in
1995.  Her energy kept us going for many months, and her
knowledge about WordPerfect has been a primary resource for the
editor's education on the computer.  This article is a piece she
wrote several years back, but is still relevant to those of us
who are still working with WP5.1.)
