Hi, Ann. I thought it was the root, but then, I was no longer sure when she
showed me how she could type in none and go to a none folder. Sure enough,
I followed her on my bn and it was there, or so I thought. After talking
with her, though, the more I thought about it, I remembered that when I had
my active sync going that I remember I could see files in the root of the bn.
So, I gthought I'd ask here just to make sure<grin>.

Hi all,
Paul, the "none folder" is a misnomer! I've been saying this for over
a year now, but nobody pays attention to me. The "none folder" is the
root directory of the disk, which ever disk you're talking about.
When you are shown the folders on a given disk, you are only shown the
folders and *not* the root directory itself. That's why you have to
specify that you want to see the files that are in the root directory
of the disk and not just the folders. PDI has chosen to call this
phenomenon "none" because they figure their users are too stupid to
learn the correct names for things. Sorry, PDI, but in this case,
you've erred, choosing to go with the general Windows philosophy
that states that users are stupid and they can't learn "technical"
terms for things, so let's make up a name that is real easy so we
won't strain their brains. I recommend that "none" be changed to
"root" in the next upgrade!
As for where your file is, I haven't a clue. Suspect it got either
trashed somehow, or it got placed in a folder under the root
directory.
