Folder Selection - Selecting a Target Folder

Use

When using functions such as create or move folders, documents, or distribution lists, you can use this function to select the storage location for the object you are editing. When selecting a target folder, you can call a dialog box that offers the following functions:

Input help and search help for selecting an existing folder
Option to create a new folder
For documents and distribution lists there is also an option to append the object as an attachment of an existing document.

Procedure

The Folder Selection dialog box appears.

Choose whether you want the object to be stored in your private folder area or in the shared folder area.
Enter the name and/or the title of a folder.
Choose .

If the information was unambiguous, the object is moved to the folder specified. If it was not unambiguous, the folders that correspond to the specified information are listed. Double-click to select the required folder in the list and then choose .

Note

When entering a folder name and title, the following additional options are available:
- Generic entries are permitted. To make a generic entry, enter part of the name with * as the wildcard for the missing parts of the name (for example, Plan*) and choose .
- You can also use the input help in the Folder Name field.
  
  In both cases, all the folders in the chosen folder range that correspond to your search criteria are displayed and you can double-click to select the required folder. If you do not specify anything, the entire folder structure of the selected folder range is displayed. If you specified unique search criteria for the generic search, the object is moved directly to the corresponding folder. The success message then tells you which folder the object was moved to.
