<a name="HDRS1CR"><H2> 4.2 Creating an OpenDoc Document</H2></a>
</banner>
<pre width="80">
<p>
OpenDoc provides an object-oriented user model, where documents are
objects that contain other objects. Each object may have a distinct
behavior. However, OpenDoc uses the terms <I>parts</I> or <I>components</I> rather than
objects, because parts implies that each item can be a subset or superset
of another item or stand-alone on its own. For example, a container part
is the definition of a part that can contain other parts within it.
<p>
To create a document you need parts that you will fill with contents. You
may use only one part or assemble several parts in one Root Part. In both
cases, you have a choice of the following three different ways to create
an OpenDoc document:
<p>
1. Start the OpenDoc Shell from the command prompt, as follows:
<p>
<samp>[C:]start</samp> <samp>docshell</samp>
<p>
2. Drag and drop one of the template icons to the Desktop or a folder of
your choice.
<p>
3. Drag and drop a selected part onto the Desktop or a folder of your
choice.
<p>
<p>
The following describes the creation of simple documents.<a href="4.2.2#HDRS1TEMP"> "Using the</a>
<a href="4.2.2#HDRS1TEMP">OpenDoc Templates" in topic 4.2.2</a> describes more completely how to create
an OpenDoc document.
