Just tried mine.

With the USB memory stick plugged into the scroll.....

-call up the context menu in quickoffice
-tap on the "sdcard" location which opens up
-search and choose folder "scsi_sda1" which is my memory stick
-save...and it saves on memory stick

hope this helps

Brian

I have. That is the way I have been installing apps, from memory stick to scroll.

It took me a while to reply to your post as I wanted to try it with quickoffice the other way.

I have just purchased a 32 gb microsd card and a (£2.49) microsd/usb adaptor so that I can use in via microSD slot or usb port. So easy to trasfer stuff onto memory stick from PC. I can then use the microsd in either way so if i forget the usb lead am not stuck.

a very flexible tablet.

Us 2.3ers will have to swap ideas and tips somehow.

Enjoy

Regards and best wishes

Sorry, didnt explain well.

I pressed the button (real one), the one that's labelled "context menu" in the manual and a toolbar appeared at the bottom of the screen in quickoffice.

Has a save option on it.

Not thick at all dont be daft.

What i did was to install quickoffice. I then took quickword and opened a new document.

I typed a few words and then could not find any way to save. I had a document but no options.

I pushed the context button with the document open and I saw some options along the bottom including "save" and "keyboard".

I chose save...

I had a new document open when I pressed the context menu button.

We we keep going until we get there.

Regards

Brian

Good for you, glad you got it sorted.

I have no idea where "browse" is...LOL...I will look for it.

It is a great tablet for the price. Have fun
