Folders on CF card still showing when My Documents is present
I believe if My Documents folder is present, it'll ignore the rest of the folders, right? Does it over-write the ignore_my_docs file? Which has higher precedence?

I'm thinking ignore_my_docs has since in Excel, Word, Notes etc. it is showing all the folders in the CF card as well as builtin storage.

Another question. I did a search but didn't find anything. Is there a way to re-map the D-Pad in pIE? I would like to be able to go back and forth using the D-Pad. Heck, even using any of the hardware button is better than having to use the stylus to click the back arrow.

The ignore_my_docs file will keep your Axim looking through the entire memory card as long as it is there. It can slow down the Axim if you have a very large/full memory card. Once you put the My Documents folder onto the card, you should just delete the ignore file.

Brilliant

I'd been trying to figure out why my axim was grinding to a halt. It appears it wanted to look at each of those 500+ html files on my CF card EVERY time I tried to do anything - Even though it was a small 32MB card with about 2mb of html files it took about 20sec. I created the My Documents folder, deleted the ignore file and whoosh, it seemed like it took off. This is critical to those who use their axim for storing html geocache pages!
