Sorry to be so late in responding, but this most definitely is normal
behavior. A CF card is no different from a hard disk in terms of the file
structure and the operating system (or, in this case, the transfer program)
will place a file wherever it finds the first block of space large enough to
accept it. The only way to force files to be placed at the end of a folder
is to defrag the card just as you would defrag a hard drive. Personally, I
don't think it's worth the trouble and possible risk of loss.

Subject: [bookport] Files landing in the middle of folder
Good morning list. First, I am running two computers; one with xp home and
one with windows me. I have this same problem on both of them. Sometimes
when I transfer files to the bookport, the are put in the middle of the
folder instead of at the end. Is this normal and if not, what can I do
about it, Thanks in advance.
