Using folders

A folder is a collection of pages. For example, suppose your place is a mail-order toy store that sells six different types of bicycles, each of which is described on a separate page. To consolidate the information on the bicycles, you could store the pages in a folder called Bicycles.

There are many different kinds of QuickPlace folders. See the following table for the kinds of folders, and descriptions of each.
