Go IntraNet! is a feature that
lets you easily start other NetManage applications. The menu includes
specific configuration data, allowing you to select sessions, destinations,
or programs.
This feature can be activated either as a menu
in a NetManage application or by selecting the Go IntraNet! icon
on the NEWTToolbar, if applicable to the specific product. When
a command is selected, the appropriate application is started with
the requested destination or from a list of previously defined .CFG
files, connection profiles, history lists and hotlists. You can
also use Go IntraNet! to copy selected text into Z-Mail Pro
and Web browser applications. Go IntraNet! is simply a faster and
more efficient way to perform these operations.

The following sections describe the procedures
for using Go IntraNet! to activate NetManage applications.
