Hi Listers,
As it appears difficult or unwise to place any sort of tape on the
flash card for labeling purposes, there is another way of doing it
which is both simple and safe. Unfortunately it is not possible to
add much information though.
If you have a card reader, insert the card and use properties to
electronically label the card.
This would only allow you to say, give the card a name and size. e.g.
kingston_4.
The name of the card will appear in My Computer when the BP is connected.
Another method of achieving a label on the card if you don't have
access to a reader is to simply create a folder on the BP with a
descriptive name. You then could transfer a text file containing
information to that folder.
The short commings of both of these methods is that the card must be
in the BP to obtain the card information.
My apologies if these ideas have already been suggested. Time does
not permit me to read all messages unfortunately.

Hi Don and list!
A certain amount of controversy can be healthy, but I definitely
agree anyone doing this should be cautious. I wouldn't attempt
putting Dymo tape on the cards, but the primary reason is that even
if there wasn't any great danger of doing that, how much information
would you realistically have room to use anyway?
Cheers,
Dave
