1. Open an explorer window (Windows-E is a quick way of doing this) and go to the 
folder you wish to move the document to

2. Move/resize the explorer window so you can see that window and the document you 
wish to move

3. Move the document to the destination folder. There are several alternative ways 
of doing this

a. Right click on the item and select "Cut" the item (it greys out), then right click 
on the desintation and select "Paste"

b. As above, but using left clicks and the control keys Control-X and Control-P

c. Right-mouse-drag the item to the destination and select "Move Here" from the menu 
that appears

d. Left-mouse-drag the item. If you see a "+" sign (copy) as you move the mouse over 
the destination, hold down the shift key to get rid of it before releasing the mouse.
