Can I move my "My Documents" folder to CF card?

Hi guys:

I'm new to PDA world and there's one thing I haven't figured out how to do yet. Maybe you can suggest the easiest way.

I use my 1GB CF card exclusively for MP3 podcasts that I download to my PC via iTunes. I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to sync my PDA with my iTunes music folders.

From what I have been able to discern, the only way to sync specific folders on the PDA is to create a "my Documents" sync folder on my PC desktop and then drop what I want into it and they show up on the PDA in My Documents next time I sync. However this puts my music and podcasts on main memory which I don't want.

Is there a way to move the My Documents folder to my CF card so that it syncs there? Or is there a better solution to do this? Right now I'm just using active sync file explorer to manually drop my podcasts down onto my CF card but I'm thinking there must be an easier way to do this.

Suggestions?

This is a very good question. You don't move this folder, but you can create a 2nd one.

First, create a new folder in your CF card called My Documents
Next, delete the file called ignore_mydocs.

For more info see this thread.
