Wondered if anyone else has this problem?
Most of my documents (.docx, .doc, .xls) are stored on the SD card for obvious reasons. If I access them through a file explorer, they open fine. However, if I open the Office program directly, they don't show up - only the one stored on the device do. (Although, the text files from SPB Backup stored on the card show up through Office!)
Thing is, I'm sure when I first got the phone, docs stored on SD card showed up when you opened Word or Excel (with a little mem card symbol in the corner of the Office file icon). Any ideas what I might have done to change things.
Am running stock Orange ROM, with too many added cabs and programs to remember, never mind list here!
I have looked through the forum, but I have to admit my attention started to drift by page 205, so forgive me if it already addressed.
On a side note, if you read the entire post list from page 1 to current, it is amazing how many repetitive posts there truly are. If people just updated the previous post re a particular question, rather than reposting, the forum would be 1/3 the pages! Although from experience, the forum search rarely brings up the right entries - I almost always have better luck just scrolling through the pages. Perhaps an index of all post headings and thread addresses would help people to find what they want. Perhaps if I have some free time... Do people think this would be useful?
Anyway, I digress. Any help with the above would be much appreciated (the much dreaded hard reset is hovering at the back of my mind, but I would much prefer a less drastic solution!)
Are they in the storage card root? (\Storage Card)
Also, have you gone into P.Word, Options, & selected the storage card for where to store doc's?
Try this: \Storage Card\My Documents. Also, you must have the templates in the original \My Documents\Templates folder or it will not open word docs.

Really, the wiki is supposed to be the central bank for known issues & the fixes. Kaiser is just too new & no one has really taken charge of the wiki because everyones still try to get everything ironed out & customized.
They are in Storage Card\My Documents\sub-folder
I have already changed the default storage location.
Strangely, Word lists all .txt documents on storage card, regardless of which folder\subfolder they are in - some are not even in My Docs.
But all will open normally if opened via File Explorer.
Further to the above, Word will list the files if they are stored in Storage Card\My Documents but not if they are in subfolders of My Documents. Seems odd, seeing as .txt files show up wherever they are located.
Anyone know of any fix to this, other than dumping all doc files in My Docs, with no sort of filing - seems a bit messy (but not surprising for Microsoft software I guess).
Just discovered that even if I navigate to either my Work or Personal folder via Word, it still does not show the .doc or .xls files there! Apparently my files do not exist, even though I can open them normally via Explorer. What's going on ?!
If you mean that your files dont show after opening word, thats just because Mobile Office programs dont show deeper than the first folder.
There is programs that make them see more deep in the folders and fix this issue, like Pocket Plus 4.
There was some freeware solution to this also, search and you will find...
Thanks Sane for the advice. That certainly explains a lot. I have Pocket Plus 4 installed - I have checked the "File Open/Save Dialog" option when I installed but unchecking and checking it again hasn't made any difference. As mentioned in the OP, I have scrolled through all 220-odd pages and couldn't see any previos posts regarding Office documents. Any idea of the rough direction I should head for more answers??
When MyDocuments is moved to an SD card, each time you try to create a new Note, you get this error:
"Could not create the voice link recording directory."
Also the every file shows twice in the Notes browser.
Has anyone come up with a solution yet? What does this error mean?
How can I move the default save location from "My Documents" to "My Documents\Notes"
Has anyone seen a solution for this yet?
At least does anyone else experience it?
Hi,
I am also experiencing this and have Googled the living daylight out of this but not yet found the solution. Did you?
I also get the double entries. Not only when using the Voice Recorder but also when using Notes even without a recording.
The problem that looked simulair was with the AudioManager of the HTC Touch Pro. The sollution there was to change the directories that AudioManager was scanning. There were 2 possible entries and both were set on "My Documents". However I can't find a simulair entry for Notes or Voice Recorder, but I might have overlooked it.
Also AdvancedConfig doesn't have an entry for a Notes or Voice default directory.
If there are more issues that keep being unresolved I might even consider changing the Storage Card the way it was.

AJ
Solved: "Could not create the voice link recording directory"
Cause: This error occurs after moving the "My Documents" folder from Main Memory to a Storage Card, Internal Storage or some other location. The (misleading) error message appears becausethe Notes application still looks for templates in the original Main Memory location. Word and Excel also show (different) error messages for the same reason.
Solution: Make sure that Notes, Word, Excel etc. templates are available in the folder "\My Documents\Templates" in Main Memory even after moving My Documents to a different location.
WM6 Templates needed.
Hi,
I also have this nasty error message. I copied the templates in the \Meine Dokumente\Vorlagen Folder (= german version of \My Documents\Templates) but it doesn't helped at all. Maybe it's because they are WM5 templates. Could anyone please copy WM6 templates ti this forum?
Regards, Michael.

Is there a Way to make a Offline Wikipedia?
I didnt found just online Wikis but no offline?
Put the Wiki on the SD and open with a App?
Hope someone can help me!
I would imagine that it would take quite a lot of space to put the entire wiki database on an SD card. Hundreds of gigs.
ther eis an app for winmo
that does that....
it has 2 versions, one you buy with no updates
and the other one you buy and have unlimited updates...
the website has a mailing list to be notified when it will eb avail for android...
however i dont remember either the name or the website .... i did sign up for the newsletter though...
There's a handful for ipods and a few hacks for other devices. Basically you need two thing: the static HTML files and an HTML viewer.
There's some static DLs here, I can't grab these at work though. anyone want to test chucking one on their SD and seeing if Astro or Linda will open them in a browser?
If the HTML files are available, or if someone can grab the ipod files, I'm sure there's some dev on here smart enough to get a reader working.
EDIT: looks like XML files might be the best way to go. Just need an app to parse it.

I have a few hundred text files in a folder on my SD card, and I need some way of searching across them. For instance, if I search for 'balloon', it needs to returns the names of the files that contain the word 'balloon', not in the filename, but in the text.
Bonus points if it would allow for wildcards, or allow me to open the result files in an editor or viewer.
Does anyone know of something like this? It's basically a frontend to 'grep' along with a simple GUI.
EDIT: Oh, and before someone mentions it...Aurora does NOT do this. It can search the filenames, but not within the text files.
An up from a dusty cupboard
Very old thread, up !
I'm looking for a command in Android shell, to do the same job as "grep" for Linux/UNIX ?
Someone got an alternative ?
Thanks
Hi, I'm looking for an app (I don't know if it exists, but I think it should) that stores the lasts things copied into clipboard and has an option to sticky some of them and after that, you can choose what to paste without accesing to the app itself, but in the place where you want to paste it. Something like "clipboard history" for windows.
Do you know any? I can't find anything usefull :s
Thanks!!!
