Quick Reference

To insert a text file using the drag-and-drop method

1. Open Windows Explorer, but make sure it does not fill the screen.
2. Display the folder that contains the TXT or RTF file you want.
3. Drag the TXT or RTF file icon onto the drawing. TXT files are inserted as multiline text objects using the current text style. RTF files are inserted as OLE objects.
