═══ 1. Help for File Transfer ═══

Use File Transfer to create and send File Transfer items (a message and 
optionally accompanying files) to other people. 

File Transfer is useful for sending messages or data when a two-way dialogue is 
not required.  For example, you could use File Transfer to send a file 
containing a draft document with a message asking for comments and suggesting a 
later P2P call when these could be discussed. 

If you and the recipients have Call Manager active, you can use File Transfer 
even when they are away from their workstations or busy with other calls. You 
do not need to make a P2P call to use File Transfer. 

The File Transfer window contains: 

o The status area showing: 

   - The number of File Transfer items received since you last used File 
     Transfer 
   - The number of File Transfer items not yet read 

o The Incoming File Transfer log: 

   - A chronological list of File Transfer items received 

o The Outgoing File Transfer log: 

   - A chronological list of File Transfer items sent 

o Push buttons: 

   - To Create a new item and send it 
   - To Resend a previously sent item 
   - To Read an incoming item or items 
   - To Delete an item or items 

o An information area that gives concise help about menu choices that you have 
  highlighted for selection 

From the Menu bar you can use: 

File 
   To create an item and send it 

Selected 
   To Resend, Read, Delete, Save, or Print selected items in the Incoming or 
   Outgoing File Transfer logs
