Select / Move Multiple Files?

I tried searching the WM 5.0 Help application for an answer to these questions, but I couldn't find an answer.

1. How do I select a file? (to copy it or delete it). Everytime I click on a file using the File Explorer, it automatically launches the application associated with the file.

2. How do I select multiple files? (to copy/paste them or delete them) It's hit or miss...sometimes I can drag over multiple files to select them, but most of the time, it launches an application.

I main reason I normally need to do this is when I'm moving files to and from a memory card.

Thanks in advance!

Mitch

You can use ctrl on the keyboard to select multiple files but I would get (in fact, did get) an after market file explorer. Total Commander (freeware) and Resco Explorer (payware) gives you a lot more options for copying files (like having both the source and recipient folders open in separate windows).

Thanks Ike,
I don't see Total Commander available for Windows Mobile 5.0 on their website. Maybe I just missed it?

You can also just drag your stylus across several files, holdclick and select cut, get to the folder you want to move the files to and then holdclick paste
