Instructions on Adding Files to the Filing Cabinet
--------------------------------------------------
All document files are kept in a subdirectory named FILES
underneath the directory containing the program files for this
program (usually C:\CARDINDX).
The easiest way to start a new document is from within the
CARDINDX program by using the built-in editor. First, create a new
index card (see "Read me fourth!"). Place a new DOS filename on
it. Then select the new index card by placing the lightbar on it
in the All INDEX CARDS screen. Press <Enter>. Follow the prompts
to create the new document. At that point you may stay in the
built-in editor to edit your new document or save the new blank or
partially completed document by pressing Ctrl-w (See "Read me
sixth!") and then editing it with your word processor (See "Read me
last!").
As mentioned, all document files are (usually) kept in the
C:\CARDINDX\FILES directory. It is no problem to import text files
into that directory from other sources. Just be sure that you
create an index card corresponding to the new file.
It does not matter whether the document reference index card
or the document file itself is created first so long as there is
eventually one of each.
