Menu Bar
The menu bar contains the menus "FILE", "SERVICES", "DISPLAY" and "HELP".
The menus are described in the section 4.3.4.1 to section 4.3.4.3.
NOTE
Since the functions and operation of the "HELP" menu are identical to those in other application programs
of the line computer, they are described comprehensively in chapt. 2 of this manual.
Display Area
In the display area the directories and files of a data partner are represented that can be edited in the Data
Manager. The directories can be opened either by double-clicking (if Double click --> Default has been set)
or via the menu. When a directory is opened, the display area is newly set up containing the contents of the
directory (see example below).
The display area contains scroll bars by means of which the section of the display area viewed can be moved.

NOTE
Only if Actions --> Confirm is set in the main window of the Data Manager will a dialog box be
displayed in which the selected action (e.g. copy, move, delete etc.) has to be confirmed before it is
executed.
If Actions --> Immediately is set, the selected action is executed immediately
without any prior
confirmation. An exception is the "Delete" action. It is always executed after
the verification query has
been confirmed.
