Question about files name changing

[tonyyau]

Hi there,

I've try to change some files (.pdb) I download in my Mac, then copy them to the SD card by card reader, but WHY those files name I saw by Palm (T|T) remain UNCHANGE?

Thanks for your help.

What application on your Palm are the files associated with?

[tonyyau]

Those files seems to be STAND-ALONE, no application needed

I use windows but I think that understand what you are saying. If you change the file name of a pdb on your computer, that file name change will not be reflected on your palm. Load an application called Filez. Filez is a free file manager for the PalmOS. With Filez you can change the name and other attributes of pdb and prc files. Go to palmgear.com and do a search for "Filez".

Or you could use McFile

I guess to be honest, I don't use McFile or Filez anymore. I have not been limited in function using ZLauncher. I do have a registere version of McFile that I used back in the days of my Visor Neo and CF MemPlug, but haven't had it loaded in a long time.
Is McFile still being developed? I might hunt for the latest version and see what the lates features have for it. I really do like McFile, in the day it was the absolute bomb of file managers. I think it may have been the first that really had an explorer like interface. I'll have to check it out.

my favourite file manager is still "file manager" by bits n' bolts. minus the lack of filtering. Fileprog is amazing too.
