G, your memory (and filing system) never ceases to amaze me! The scary part is that I just remember bits and pieces of these issues you helped me with! Don't recall having the drive letters problem and I vaguely remember discussing that I use the USB port on my HP all-in-one. When I first got the HP I was really upset because none of the card readers were the right size for the card in my camera. My "new" camera was already obsolete. But I found I could move the pictures off the camera through the USB port down at the bottom of the card reader slots. One of the things I have learned from all this is that I must keep better records both on my computer and hard copy. The old brain isn't what it used to be! I do think it is good, though, to keep learning new things and computers are good for that exercise. Good to have you back!!
