As you work with documents in the Library, you may find that you need to move them to another folder due to a change in your folder structure or because the document was saved to the wrong folder. When you move a document to another folder, all links to modules, sections, assessments and other documents are maintained. Because each document is assigned a unique ID, you can move the document into a folder that already contains a document with the same name. You can move a single document or multiple documents to another folder using drag-and-drop or cut and paste. A cut document does not move until it is pasted. If you do not paste the document, it remains in its original location.
In addition to moving documents within the Library, you can also move documents from the Library to an outline, within an outline, and from one outline to another. Dragging a document from the Library into an outline links the document to the outline, but does not physically move the document from its original folder. Moving documents within an outline or to another outline, unlinks the document from its current location in an outline and relinks it to its new location in an outline.
Note: A summary message appears if some of the documents you selected could not be processed. Clicking the View activity log link in the message displays a list of the results for each document.
