Kylie, that Keylist file has to be unprotected. If it isn't, you
will not be able to add addresses to it. Did you copy it from
the CF card, or did you restore? Yes, it will say that the file
exists. If it asks you if you want to replace, say yes. But, it
has to be unprotected.

Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Utilising backed-up Keylist and
Keyplan files
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.
Cheers
Kylie

Hello Kylie:
It could be that your addresses are protected. 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.

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. The backed-up version was made on a different
machine, and I
would like to import all the information onto the new machine
without having
to type it all in again. Also, because I no longer have access
to the
original machine on which the files were made, simply retyping
the addresses
and appointments is not an option.
I can access the addresslist (keylist definition file) off my CF
card if I
select it as the keylist file under the keylist options menu.
However, I am
unable to move, import or restore this keylist file into the
keylist folder
on the flash disk. I can only access it when I have the correct
CF card
inserted.
After my attempts to copy the keylist file from my CF card to my
flash disk,
whenever I set the default keylist file in the options menu, I am
given the
message: "access denied".
Can anyone explain how I can replace the empty, default keylist
file with
the backed-up file on my CF card? And also how to regain access
to the
keylist file on my flash disk?
After my failed attempts with my address list, I have not
attempted anything
with my planner, because I have started making appointments in
the default
planner, and do not want to lose them. However, I have
appointments which I
need to access in the backed-up planner. So, is there any way of
setting the
planner files on the CF card as default, and importing the few
appointments
from the current default planner into it, without losing any of
the
appointments in either file? Which of the keyplan files to I need
to move to
ensure that the planner will work correctly?
I am running KS 7.5 built 28 if that makes any difference. The
files I am
attempting to import were made in KS 7.2, although it doesn't
seem to have
made them incompatible because I can access the addresses in the
old address
list.
Thanks for your help,
Kylie
