The procedure used depends on the field label:

• Copy to folder
  If the document does not yet exist in a folder, you can choose a folder in which to save the document.
• Delete from folder
  If the document already exists in a folder, you can specify whether the document should be deleted from it.

Procedure

If you want to copy the document to a different private folder than that predefined, you have the following options:

• Display your private folders using the Possible entries pushbutton.
• Enter the complete name of the folder.
• Enter a character string, end it with * and press ENTER to confirm.
  The system searches for private folders whose names contain this character string. If one folder is found, it is entered. If several folders are found, they are displayed for selection.
