Hi Nancy and list:

The links to the parts could be labelled slightly better than they are, because you can't tell just by listening to them that they are links to MP3 files. However, right clicking on them and saving target as works to download them. They should work fine on the book port. If you're going to use these files a lot, you may find it useful to go through them and set appropriate bookmarks to facilitate faster jumping around through the files for quicker later reference. The only limitation is the amount of space on your card. Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Dave

Hello,

Mark good suggestion.

I'm pasting the link here, so maybe someone can see what happens when you go
to the site.
www.cde.state.co.us/ctbl/2006_Legislative_Blue_Book.htm
There is a pdf version as well. There must be a way to convert that maybe?
Thanks for the help sorry to keep asking.


Nancy

If it's a Real Audio file than a program like TotalRecorder or SoundTaxi
could be used to record the file to a hard drive and converted to MP3 so it
can then be transferred to the bookport. I am less familiar with Sound Taxi.
I know TotalRecorder will do this and from what i have read on this list, it
is likely that sound taxi will also do the job.
