Sorry, Mark, I guess I just assumed that would be the case.

Cheers,

Someone here please correct me if i"m wrong, but the only way to move a file 
from your computer onto the Edge is to take out the SD card, transfer it to an 
independent card reader, whether it be in your computer's structure or a USB 
device, and copy whatever you want onto the card, then replace the card in the 
Edge.  This process is commonly referred to as "sneaker-net."  Sorry if my hip 
speech threw you off there…

Once you've done that, though, the file you have sneaker-netted to your Edge is 
*NOT* a grade II file, but rather a "raw text," file with all special 
characters and whatnot still embedded within it.  The Edge can only handle your 
basic types of text files or BRF files, and won't even recognize or open, say, 
a *.doc or RTF file, unless you rename it to *.txt …

I hope this makes things more clear, and again someone please jump down my 
throat if it's required.  Gently please, I still have my tonsils.
