Definitions

if you have an ABCD set of stationery boxes and park them on top of the files stuff coming in to be filed, first filed into these ABCD categories and then re-filed into the drawers which are now open will save you a lot of clutter and running back and forth. In other words these ABCD boxes are a pre-file. (HCOB 6 Apr 57)
