Finding drawers in the Folders window
In the Folders window, drawers are sorted alphabetically by ID or name. To quickly locate folders for a specific drawer:
- If your firm uses multiple DT FileCabinet data locations, verify that the correct location appears in theData Locationsfield at the top of the Folders window.
- Place your cursor in theDrawer ID or namefield next to the Go button in the Folders window.
- Enter the first few letters of the ID or name for the drawer you are seeking or enter the ID or name in theDrawer ID or namefield and click the Go button. The list scrolls to match your entry.noteAfter placing your cursor in theDrawer ID or namefield, you can scroll through the drawer names for the current file location by using the up or down arrows on your keyboard.
- Double-click the drawer ID to view the folders and documents stored in this drawer.note
- If you prefer to find a drawer using the drawer name, you can re-sort the Drawer list.
- Drawers are first matched by the current drawer list sort method (for example, drawer ID). If no matches are found, DT FileCabinet will then search based on the other sort method (for example, drawer name). If the characters typed match more than one drawer, a list will be displayed allowing you to select the desired drawer.
