Thanks, akheron! I assume that the file hosting site you used works much like a pic hosting site. Nice idea!!!

What ebook reader is needed to read .rar files? Will MS Reader do?

It's in html, so you can view it with whatever browser you use. :approve:

.rar is simply another compression format like .zip. Most unzip apps can open it. Inside is the folder with all the html files for your browser.

Ok..excuse my newbness...but I can't seem to get this to work. I downloaded the file to my pc and then copied the file to my WM folder so it syncs with my Axim. Now I have the file in my axim, but when I click on it using file explorer, it gives me the message: There is no application assoicated with "CIA factbook". Rune the application first.....
I don't know how to add it to my favorites either. I have tried moving the file physically using Total Commander to my Windows/Favorites folder but that doesn't work either. How do I get PIE to open the file? Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

Never mind. I never really heard of the .RAR compression format. Always used to use winzip or pkzip (dating myself here). Well, I downloaded the trial for WinRAR and moved the entire CIA factbook folder to my Axim. Its a great resource! Thanks again.

ksong12 - The link to the document on your site is actually
http://kevong.com/DOCUMENTS/CIA_factbook.rar
Hope you don't mind the correction (and thanks for hosting it!).
