Sounds promising.

Can you (or anyone with a Touch) verify a few things.

Can you PM me a link to a file containing the contents of the .sdr file (or if its just text, just paste it here) - or confirm the file is 0 length.

Can you add a new book to your Kindle.

Think of a new unique Collection name.

View the Documents folder to verify there is no subdirectory for the new collection name, then disconnect your Kindle

Using the Kindle, add the new book to the new collection

View the Documents folder again and confirm a subdirectory for collection name was created, and an .sdr file was created for the book in the collection.

Go into the Documents folder, create a new subdirectory with an unused collection name, and then copy the .sdr file from the other directory to this directory.

On your Kindle, see if a new collection name is created with the book in it.

If not, try a Restart and check again.

If its there, try deleting the .sdr name from your PC, then see if it disappears from the collection on the Kindle - if not, try a Restart.
