Topic:
How to move files from one DSL to another.

Description:
The type of files you can move:
	- vvol  and associated .key files
	- surf  and associated .key files
	- disp  and associated .key files

Solution:
1.) DataManager > Utilities > Move Files

Before moving files be aware of the following:
The .key file listed in 'Move files' actually refers to a group of 3 files:

*_key.dat
*_key.fpb
*_key.idx

These files are created when the first vvol, disp, and surf files for each 
survey are created.
Eg.  survclass.vvol
     survclass.vvol.key
It is essential that the .key files are always on the same disk as the vvol,
disp, or surf file they were created with.  Therefore, when moving a '.vvol',
'.disp', or a '.surf', i.e., no '_n', always select the corresponding .key file
at the same time.

Additional vvol, disp, and surf files will be distinguished by an '_n'.
Eg. survclass_1.vvol
    survclass_2.vvol
These can be moved independantly of the .key files.


2.) Select files (and associated .key files where required) from:
       'Select file(s) to move'
     
3.) Select target DSL from:
       'Select target DSL'

4.) Click on the Move button.

The system will check that ample disk space exists for each file as it is moved
and stop and give a warning message if sufficient space is not available on the 
selected target DSL.
