I don't understand. doesn't the top of the page tell you where you are at as in what drive? Tech Rose - LoveBytes <TechRose@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: The simplest way I can think of....is when you have copied the data to the Hard Drive (C:)... take the flash drive out of the USB port.

(after you have put it back in the USB port...) is rename the folder the data is in..by just adding the time to the end of the folder name.. Work folder 1 - 912 PM Then you know..you just updated that one. When you add something else new to that folder..change the name/time again. I have had to do this myself. It is so frustrating to remember which is which. I do have two monitors..so it is a bit easier. I can have both open at the same time and the helps. On one monitor, you can have both folders open also. Just make the browser screen smaller and you can have both open...the name of the file..including the directory letter (such as C for your C drive will show up ... Hope this helps....

Hi All, Hope this isn't the dumb question of the year--if it is, the year's almost over :o) I carry a lot of work home from the office on my flash drive and am constantly confused as to which drive I'm in. The flash drive is E: and after I copy the data to my C: drive I'm back & forth making changes, etc. and end up doing this several times because I never know where I'm at. Is there a way to tell which copy I'm working with without closing the file to check? I hope my question is clearly stated. (OS is W-Me) ~Glo -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
