I’m using WM5.0 on a IPAQ 2495. When using an image view I use the open file to find a JEPG in a subdirectory of the card I can not see any of my files. I’ve tried several image view programs. My directory structure is set up like this SDCARD/PHOTOS/KIDS/TOM. I’m trying to view a JEPG in the TOM directory. Am I doing something wrong, do I need to check some check box somewhere.
Create My Documents folder on the root directory of the sd card and put your folders inside it.
I can put the photo file in the folder My Documents and within the first subfolder and still see it. If I place it in a second subfolder I can no long find it. I can see photos in My Documents/ My Pictures, if I put the photo under a folder called testing with in My pictures, My Document/My Pictures/Testing, I can not see the folder Testing in my list of folders and I can not see my photo file when using the programs to open the photo file.
It seems with programs that have a tree type menu can find subfolders, programs with a dropdown box to choose folders can not find subfolders. Is this a function of WM or is my device not working properly.
Hi
I know that on the device itself, WM will only allow one level of sub-folders under "My Documents". The default File Open dialog only shows one level of sub-folders in a drop-down and the files for the selected sub-folder in a list. One limitation of this is that it does exactly the same thing if you select to show files on the SD card.
Install to overcome this limitation and open files wherever they are on your device or SD card.
Hope that helps.

I put my folders in a folder called My Documents on the root of SDCARD. Now I don’t see my first directory called photos. Does WM5.0 allow subdirectories?
Just for testing, can you put a picture file in the main My Documents folder and see if the program can see it?
I believe that the normal behavior especially for WM programs from Microsoft. What image viewers have you tried? Perhaps there is one that can access file outside My Documents folder.
