Evelyn,

Just an FYI, if you open files using the book reader, whether or not they 
reside on a flash card, the BN will not alter them in any way.  They are 
protected.

Subject: [Braillenote] a strange file manager occurrence


Hello, All,

I have begun to use my BN for Braille music files created by Goodfeel. The 
file extension for such files is .gf. When I put three files on a flash 
card tonight, I renamed them so that they would have a .brf extension so 
that the BN would recognize them. When I went to copy the first of them to 
a folder on my flashdisk, it aborted, zero files copied. I tried this more 
than once with Braille only, which is my default way of using my BN. Then I 
turned that off and turned on speech, hoping for more info. I tried the 
procedure again, the copy aborted, but I got no indicatation of anything 
except, zpero files copied.

Then I opened one of the files on my flash card, something I don't like to 
do for frear of altering it accidentally. Oh, I did forget to mention that 
the unit did say "read to end". So I made sure the cursor was at the top of 
the file and then I closed it. I proceeded to copy to flash again. This 
time, the file copied, and I copied the other two while I was at it. I'm 
glad I have them in the BN itself now, but I thought this was all rather 
strange.

Evelyn
