A computer having a file management system and a plurality of objects organized in folders is presented. The file management system allows for the automatic maintenance of folders. A query basis is created for each folder, the basis consisting of a description of contents of folder. That is, the query basis describes the criteria for those objects which are to be included as contents of the folder. Upon a pre-specified interval or trigger event, the contents of the folder are updated by the file management system automatically. This relieves the user of the task of "filing" relevant objects in a folder and insures that the contents of a folder are, at any moment, complete and up to date. <IMAGE> |
