Very much appreciate a brief listing of steps on the use of FreeOTFE4PDA.

TIA...
Once you mount the volume, look into root (My Device) directory of your PDA. You will see there a new directory called FreeOTFE Storage or something similar (you can set the name in mount dialog) . You can use it just like any other directory. Once you're done, dismount the file from within FreeOTFE. The directory will then disappear from file explorer, and your data will be hidden in encrypted container.

I did run into a weird inon-PDA ssue: when I try to copy files from a TrueCrypt container into FreeOTFE container on my laptop (W2K SP4) the system freezes. When I do the same on my Win XP home PC, it works like a charm.
