I've never exported to the Serial port myself. However, I know you need to prepare the computer to receive the file before you transfer it from the BrailleNote. This leads me to assume that you choose the location of the file from the computer before the file is exported. In the User Guide of the BN, it says to prep the PC for receiving, so I think you would have to choose the location where you want the file stored, and choose it from the computer before transferring. One of my friends transfers files in this manner from his Braille Lite to PC, and he does preparation like this on the PC before exporting from the notetaker; in other words, he doesn't just export from the Braille Lite without prepping the PC to receive the file. To answer your question, the path the file would take would be chosen on the PC before transfer, and I don't see a reason why the name of the file wouldn't remain the same as it is on the BN. HTH.
