Carol, I simply used the format facility in the R1 and I don't know
what system that uses. I'll ad though that the Integral cards sent me
the other day seemed to work straight out of the box without
formatting.
Cheers,
From Ray

Do they need to be formatted for FAT or FAT32? Is this an additional
thing
you have to watch for?
