End User Tip : Drag & Drop Archiving
Thursday, February 16, 2006 12:00 AM
Ever have a user who wishes that they could archive documents by just dragging them to a folder in their mailfile? If the answer is yes then this little trick is for you.
First of all make sure the user has an archive setup. This can either be a local archive or a server based archive as the trick works for both types of archive.
Next create a new folder in the users mailbox called Archive. It's very important that you use a capital A, if you don't then the trick won't work.
That's it. The user just has to drag documents to that folder and they will be prompted if they want to archive them or not.
While it is possible to drag & drop documents to the 'Archive' option that's available under the tools navigator that method won't support server based archives.
