Hi Scott,

Thanks for the reply.  I am definitely a newbie when it comes to things 
associated with a palm device, but I'm learning. You write:

Ok, so if I want to be able to open plain text files that are sent as 
attachments, what do I do?  Do you know of any programs that might use 
Exchange Manager and deal with text files.  Or, is there a way in 
"Documents to Go" to set the kind of file that it will open?

Of course, with an SD card, I can save the file and then use some 
program to open it.  This is an ok workaround, but not as elegant as 
opening the document right from mail...

Thanks,

Mark
