   A primary reason for mapping a DOS path to a number (i.e., creating a SmartPath) is for the operator to be able to display that SmartPath, or a document within the SmartPath, 'mouselessly.’ And the steps could not be easier.

  To display the SmartPath (i.e., the folder itself):

1.Type the number of the desired SmartPath on any blank line of an editing screen.
2.Press <Alt-G>. For example:

 8<Alt-G>

         Instantly a standard Word ‘FileOpen’ dialog appears displaying the contents of the chosen SmartPath.

  To open a document within a SmartPath:

1.Type the appropriate SmartPath number (1-12) on any blank line followed by a colon and the name of the document.
2.Press <Alt-G> for the original document or <Ctrl-Alt-G> to open a copy of the document.  For example:

8:Letter to Mom <Alt-G>
