Section 4- File Structure Views

List View

Now let's look at the as List option. To navigate through the Macintosh OS file structure using the List option you must first set the window to the as List view. Scroll to the folder you want to look in, and then click on the right pointing arrow in front of the folder. To view the contents of the subfolder click on its right pointing arrow to open it. The arrow will then point down to indicate that the subfolder contents has been displayed. Continue this process until you find the file you are looking for and then double click on the file.

For example, in the Papers Folder, you have just found the Book Report 1 file that you needed. Double click to open the Book Report 1 file.

The "as List" option will allow you to see more information about the items in the window such as the name, date modified, size, and kind. (The window may have to be resized accordingly or you may have to use the scroll bars to see all the information available in the list view).
