How do you open files sometimes ?

06-12-05, 12:20 PM

how do you open files that are on a CF or SD card when the interface only gives you a list of folders that does NOT include either the CF or SD cards? Here is a screenshot of Adobe and the drop down menu does not show either the CF or SD cards.

The only way to open files on the CF/SD card at the moment is to go into file explorer and open them from there. is tehre a way to add the CF/SD cards to this list of folders ?

Thanks

First thing to try is to add a "My Documents" folder to the card and delete the ignore_my_docs file from the root directory.

Sorry about that. I should of explained. That's already been done. They showup if I put them into My Documents on the CF/SD card no problem. I just want to add a folder to this list thta only some programs use as it would make life so much easier than putting stuff in My documents all the time. Then I could put all PDF's in a folder labeled PDF and so forth.

You could probably put a folder in My Documents called PDF and view it with Adobe
