A pointing cursor is moved to a position on a file icon to be transferred in a file list using a position input unit. Thereafter, a button of the position input unit is depressed to select the file icon. The position input unit is moved while depressing its button so as to move the pointing cursor into a display area of a received image, and thereafter, the button of the position input unit is released. At this time, a drag & drop event is generated by a basic software program. Therefore, by only dragging the icon of the file to be transferred by operating the position input unit, an instruction input for a series of file transfer processes can be attained, and the operability for the file transfer function can be improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a communication apparatus which can solve the above-mentioned problem.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a communication apparatus with good operability.
In order to achieve the above objects, according to a preferred aspect of the present invention, there is provided a communication apparatus comprising: display means for displaying information associated with an external apparatus with which the communication apparatus communicates, and information belonging to the communication apparatus; instruction means for instructing movement of a display position, on the display means, of the information belonging to the communication means; and transmission means for, when the instruction means instructs movement of the display position, on the display means, of the information belonging to the communication means onto a display area, on the display means, of the information associated with the external apparatus, transmitting the information belonging to the communication means to the external apparatus.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a communication apparatus which provides good operability upon transmission of a file to a plurality of remote communication apparatuses.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a communication apparatus which can perform an appropriate file transmission operation in correspondence with the function of a partner apparatus.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a communication apparatus having a new function.
Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of the embodiments taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
