 Click on the box marked 

Create.

NOTE: If the file was created successfully, the following will appear (except 

filename will be the name of the file you have created and /home/directory will be 

the directory you have created the file in. File Type will be replaced with the type 

of file you have created): 

Creation of filename (File Type) succeeded in/home/directory 

Troubleshooting 

Make sure to create the proper type of file for its contents. A file created with an 

improper file type may not work in the manner that you wish it to. For example, 

an HTML Document that is created as a Perl Script will not work, it needs to be 

created as an HTML Document.
