You may use all the letters and numbers on the keyboard plus
these characters: _ ^ $ ~ ! # % & { } ( ) @ and ‘. File names
are not case-sensitive and must not contain spaces.
Using a file extension
Most programs assign an extension to the file name that
identifies the file as being created in the program with a
particular format. For example, Microsoft
®
Word saves files
with a .doc extension. Any file name with an extension of
“.doc” is assumed to be a Microsoft
®
Word file. Creating your
own extension is usually unwise, since the program is
unlikely to recognize a strange extension and may refuse to
handle your file correctly.
TECHNICAL NOTE: By default, the Windows
®
XP operating
system does not show filename extensions. For information on
showing or hiding file extensions see your Windows
®
XP
online help.
Printing your work
Ensure the operating system is set up for your printer as
described in “Setting up your printer” on page 73.
HINT: You only need to set up the printer the first time you
connect it. If you use more than one printer or are changing
printers, you will need to set up the Windows
®
XP
Professional operating system to run with the additional
printer(s).
