you install it on the pc, all it does is compare directories and there content and copy if the date has changed.

thanks for the quick replies.
i thought there was a way to do it without 3rd party aps. oh well. now that ive got that done, how do i set up a quick way to get to the folder. right now i have to hit start and then file manager then my docs and then the folder. ive read somewhere on here about setting up a shortcut key or something like that.

well what you CAN do is (kind of lengthy) but

create a shortcut of the folder
then move that short cut to \windows\start menu
then go to your start menu scroll over top of the short cut
then hit the right soft key and should bring up 1 option which is create speed dial

it should work for you

hate to keep bothering you but when i goto the folder and try to create a shortcut the option is greyed out. do i need to just put the folder in the start menu to begin with or would that cause problems.
