Chapter 2 Exploring Your Handheld
With your handheld turned on, you can tap the handheld screen to perform many
operations, such as the following:
Open applications.
Select menu commands.
Initiate a Find operation to search through applications installed on your
handheld for specific text. (Find operations do not search through applications
on expansion cards.)
Select options in dialog boxes.
Open the onscreen keyboards.
Just as you can drag the mouse to select text or move objects on your computer, you
can drag the stylus to select text. You can also use the stylus to drag the slider of
any scroll bar.
