True--thanks for the correction.

And if you really know your way around Windows, you can actually create a 
new Send To entry that will send a file to a specific folder. I've done this 
for my Audible books folder.

Actually, it's placed in whatever folder is set as the default in Options.

As someone else asked, did you use the Book Port Transfer program to move
this file or did you just copy the file using Windows Explorer? You must use
the transfer software for _anything_ you place on the device.

Note that when you install the transfer software, a new item is added to the
Send To submenu in Windows Explorer for the Book Port. When you use this
choice, the transfer software is automatically used. However, you don't have
any control over where the file is placed--it's always placed into the root
folder.

I converted a file into a txt file, and moved it to my bookport for reading.
But, when I push the read key, I get a unfiltered file type not supported
error ,  or something like that.  What do I have to do to allow my book port
to read the file?

Thanks

Keith
