Hi, Sherry and List! When using the side slot, it is "s" for storage, but when using the back slot, it is "c" for compactflash card. Just a matter of remembering which one you are using, that's all. Don't feel bad, or silly, for making such a mistake. It probably happens to many people all the time. Keep up the good work, Sherry.
