Hello,  I am pasting the instructions I received from RFB&D on how to do 
this below.  Please note that how to do it from a CD is first, and how to do 
it from a file you downloaded is next.  Anita
"You can locate your RFB&D books in the My Documents folder under RFB&D 
Media Files.

cards.  The reader may either be built into the PC or connected via a USB 
cable.
