f.3/NAME
FUNCTION
Change the file name.
DESCRIPTION
To use the NAME command:
1. Move the cursor onto the name of the file to be renamed and
then press the f.3 Function Key.
2. Enter the new file name in response to the following prompt,
where "xxxxxx.xx" in this case is the file name to be changed:
NAME xxxxxx.xx as
3. Type in a proper file name, press the
Key, and the old
name of the file will be changed to the new name.
The new
name will be displayed on the screen in place of the old name.
It is impossible to assign a file type such as ".DO", ".BA", or ".CO"
when you are replacing an old file name with a new name.
The
new file will automatically assume the same file type extension as the
old file.
A "BEEP" sound will be generated and the input will be rejected if
one of the following has been entered:
1. If an attempt is made to designate a file name that is longer
than 6 characters.
2. If you try to include a period or colon as part of the 6
character name.
3. If you assign an already existing name to a new file.
Most punctuation marks, other than the colon or period, may be
used as part of a file name.
