The first file is opened with Open File; the second file is opened with Open File for Dual. When you are working in Dual Display mode you cannot use the Open File for Dual command to open a third file , you must close at least one of the files before you can use Open File for Dual. • File operations are identical in the Word Processing, Spreadsheet, and Addressbook applications. While working with one application, you can use Open File or Open File for Dual to open a file belonging to the same application, or to a different application. • To save the current file, use Save File or Close File. • You can organize your files in File Management mode; however, File Copy, Disk Copy, and Convert functions are not available.
