My New

Doc.txt

and press

Enter

.

Double-click the My New Doc icon.

The operating system opens the new document in
Notepad—the text editor built into the operating system.

Sample Notepad window

Notice that when the document opens, there is a new
button on the taskbar that reads New Doc.txt- Notepad
(the name may be too long to fit into the taskbar space
but, if you point to the name, the complete name is
visible). By displaying buttons like this one, the taskbar
helps you keep track of the programs and files you
currently have open.

To learn more about Notepad, open the Help menu by
