4.16 PUTTING DOCUMENTS INTO FOLDERS

Paperwork is a challenge if you can’t see! But it helps to keep similar things such as bills together in folders labelled in large print or braille. You can do the same on the computer if you have lots of documents, or if you share your computer with others.

The computer already has a folder set up where everything you write in Microsoft Word gets placed automatically and files are arranged alphabetically. This folder is called Documents (or My Documents in older versions of Windows). You’ll first need to go into this, create a new folder, give it a meaningful name then place into it the documents you want to keep.

TO GO TO DOCUMENTS OR MY DOCUMENTS

Try either of these methods:

1) Press START, ARROW RIGHT once and type D until you hear "documents" and press ENTER.

2) Press Start, type M until you hear "my documents" and press ENTER.

TO CREATE A NEW FOLDER

Press the application key and arrow down to "new" and press ENTER. You will hear the word "folder".

Press ENTER again and type the name of the folder you wish to create.

Press ENTER. Thunder will speak the folder name and date.

To move an item into your new folder, go to the Documents/My Documents folder as above in method 1 or 2, and ARROW DOWN to the document to be moved. To do this more quickly, type the first letter of the document name until you hear it spoken.

You then have a choice. You can remove it from its place in the documents list with CONTROL X and put it in your new folder or you can keep the document where it is in the list and make a copy to put into the folder with Control C.

To put it into the folder, ARROW UP to find the folder and press ENTER. Then CONTROL V will paste the document into the folder you have created. Next time you want to use that document, go into Documents/My Documents as above, press the first letter of the new folder’s name till you hear it spoken. Press ENTER. ARROW DOWN to the name of the item you want and press ENTER to get into it.
