Default Please Help with moving documents

I'm sure this is one of those questions that has a too
simple answer, so please excuse a dumb question!

I am trying to find an easy way to move saved documents
into newly created folders for better organization of my
documents. Is there some way to activate a click and drag
feature? I know I can open each document and "re-save" it
into the new folder, but I was hoping someone may have a
tip with an easier, quicker process.

I would appreciate any help!!!

Thanks.

Use Windows Explorer. That's largely what it's for.

It's very easy. Just right click on the document you want to move or copy, highlight copy, then go to the new folder, right click again and hit "paste". All done

I'm not sure I uderstand completely... click and drag should work just fine across folders. If not, you can always select the documents you want to move, cut them (either by right clicking or using Ctrl+X) then pasting them in the desired folder (again, either right click or use Ctrl+V).

Just postion your curser over the file you want, right click, copy, move to new folder, right click again, paste. Sorry if this posted a few times, couldn't seem to get it to work.
