Hi Rhonda and list I think that my unprotecting the address list may have triggered the "access denied' message. I tried unprotecting the file, got the message, then re-protected it. However, the message still appears. Also, Keysoft doesn't appear to want to let me copy the address list directly. Even though I have unprotected the file in the keylist folder on the flash disk, when I try to copy the file the message appears: address list already exists and is protected, option? When I press to replace, the same message appears. When I exited, I was told that 1 file was copied. It was after this attempt that my access was denied to the address list on the flash disk.
Also, after apparently copying the keylist file from the CF card, the file information details of the keylist file on my flash disk did not change. When I press space with I on the address list file on my CF card, I get the following information: keylist definition file. Name: address list. Records: 101. size: 184.2. last modified: Monday 20 april 2009 at 8:08 a.m. When I do this on the address list on my flash disk, I get this information: keylist definition file. Size: 1.85 kb. Last modified: Thursday 5 june 2003 at 9:17 a.m. protected. Note that the file on the flash disk does not mention file name or number of records. Note also that the file on the CF card does not mention protection status. Any more suggestions? And there is still the planner to tackle.

Did you get a "one file copied message?" From the Main Menu, press F, then P. Go to your Flash Drive. Go to the Keylist file. After you enter, go to your list of files, and press Space with X, until you see "hidden files." When you find your address dot cdb, press Enter. If it says "protected," press U to unprotect it. Let us know how this does. > ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Kylie Forth" <[email protected] >To: <[email protected] >Date sent: Mon, 18 May 2009 06:33:07 +0800 >Subject: [Braillenote] Utilising backed-up Keylist and Keyplan files >Hello List >I have a backed-up version of my address list and planner on a CF card, and >would like to move them onto my flash disk to use as the default planner and >address list.
