Zod - thanks so much for taking the time to help someone who now finds himself very inept.

The tablet definitely sees the external card and if I go into the card via "Settings" (without having opened Moon), I can select the book and then tell the tablet to use Moon to open it.

But when Moon is already open, nothing I have been able to do so far will get it to look at the external SD card. The /mnt folders do not include m_external_SD. What's there is asec, expand, obb, runtime, sdcard, secure and user.

Using my laptop to find what's where on the tablet, I can see that five of my books are stored under "books" on the internal SD (/> mnt> sdcard> Books) along with a directory named "MoonReader" which contains the rest of the books I have on the tablet (other than those on the external card, of course).

I was trying to put all the large PDFs (the current one I'm reading is 304MB) onto the external card, but they really don't seem to be easily accessible there.
