Hi everyone, I have a question about pen/thumb drives. I know you can transfer files from your computer onto them and then load them on another computer somewhere. My question is should I be able to open up the file/any file after putting it on the thumb drive while the drive is still connected to my computer. In other words, to check and make sure if got on the thumb drive okay. I tried doing that with a family tree maker file and it would not open although it appeared to be on the thumb drive. Did this all while it was plugged into my usb port. Does the program have to be on the thumb drive to open the file? thanks, christy -- <Please delete this line and everything below.> To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/
