OK, I am much closer now.
The instructions said check for the hotsync manager,
and I did. I was there. After the 3rd read, I realized it
said to close it! So I did. ;-). (It's late...)
So now I get "ready" on the PC, so I click download on
the palm. It downloads. then the PC says "Invalid file name".
I can find no new files on the PC.
So I know I am close.
Suggestions?
Chris
