I am sure I am the only one that does not know the answer but here it goes. I have just purchased a CF card and notice that most programs can't see the storage card. They only look at folders in "My Documents" Is there a way to get around that. I have looked in the registry but not sure what to switch if there is a switch.
Thanks
D.

Hi dustintech!
You should be able to access the contents of you Storage Card via the Active Sync Explore function.
Navigate to the Mobile Device icon & you'll probably see a My Pocket PC Icon.
Click on the Icon & then the Storage Card icon.
Create a folder like you would do so in your desktop folder & rename it My Documents. Now, this folder acts like a 'virtual' extension of your RAM's My Folder. You can then begin to store your MP3s or WMA files as well as other files there.
Hope this helps!
All the best!

Try Total Commander 5.5 in stead of the Active Synch browser.

You will love the functionality & convenience of transferring files & general browsing of the PDA.

You could try Star Tap which will allow you to create a short cut to any file any where on the CF card.

Hope this helps.
