Hi,

I've never actually used those items myself as I usually do renaming and moving 
from within the Finder.  that being said, for the "Rename" option, after 
selecting Rename from the File menu, make your change then either go on to make 
any other modifications within the body of the document or just press cmd-s to 
save your changes.  The "Move To..." item works similarly to any other save 
dialog on your Mac.  Choose your location and then either press return or press 
the "Move To" button.  Some actions are different depending on whether you are 
in Icon, List, or Column view.

Later...

Hi Brad,

        Perfect,  That is exactly the information I needed to keep moving 
forward with Pages. 

Any tips on how to use the rename or move commands in the file menu are 
welcome.  They look like they could be useful if I could figure them out. 

Thanks again Brad for the info I needed to get work done!
