Mark, Thank you for your comment.
I should have clarified what I'm trying to do. As part of an app I'm developing it will store *User Created files* on the SD card if it is available. If the SD card is not available, it will store the files on the devise Internal Flash if it is available. Also, these User Created files must be stored in a location where they will not be deleted by the system when the app is uninstalled,. The Android Dev Guide tells me to store files in one of the public directories on the external storage. But I am confused on what code to use to access the devise internal storage. I'm developing this app using API Level 8. Please see the reference information below at this link: * http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html* *Saving files that should be shared* If you want to save files that are not specific to your application and that should not be deleted when your application is uninstalled, save them to one of the public directories on the external storage. See: getExternalStorageState() See: getExternalStoragePublicDirectory() Thanks for your help.
