Try using OMNICOM or any of the File managers to move them into the
DOCUMENT directory.

One word of note: the GEOS OS treats the same directory structure on
different drives as the same drive, so if you put something in
C:\GEOWORKS\DOCUMENT, it will be seen in the B:\GEOWORKS\DOCUMENT
directory from the application. I myself have created a sub-directory on
my C:\GEOWORKS\DOCUMENT directory called "TextOnCard" and put any text
files in that directory that I want to keep on my SRAM card. They are
seen in the B:\GEOWORKS\DOCUMENT\TextOnCard Directory, but I have none on
the B drive, so it automatically references the C drive.
