FILER

USE FILTER IN FILER TO DISPLAY ONLY THOSE FILES YOU WANT

95LX 100LX

Let's say you only want to look at the Lotus files on C:\ (i.e. those files with the .WK1 file extension).

ON THE 100LX

Go to FILER and make sure you are in C:\. (Press (ESC) until C:\*.* is displayed in the top right corner of the screen. If you find yourself in the Available Drives screen, highlight [-C-] and press (ENTER).) Press (F4) (Filter), type in *.wk1 and press (ENTER). FILER will only show files with a .WK1 extension. You can create other filters to select files to be displayed. If you had entered *.doc, only MEMO document files would have been displayed. If you had entered p*.*, all files beginning with P would have been displayed.

ON THE 95LX

The 95LX does not have this Filter feature built into FILER. However, press (MENU) File-Sort and you can have the files sorted and displayed by Date/Time of creation, file Extension, file Size, or Filename. You can also press (MENU) System from FILER to exit to DOS. From there you can use the DOS DIRectory command with the above filters to display a listing of the files you want. For example, type dir *.wk1 from the DOS prompt and you get a list of Lotus files in the current directory.
