Where Are the Changes I Made to My File?
Don’t look for the changed file in its original location on your computer. Only the synchronized 
version of the file contains the changes. To find the synchronized file, do one of the following:
Windows XP: Do either of the following:
On your computer desktop, double-click the <device name> My Documents icon. (This is 
a shortcut to the Files sync folder.)
In ActiveSync desktop software, double-click Files. The location of the Files sync folder 
appears in the File Synchronization Settings dialog box (under “On this computer, 
synchronize the files in this folder”).
Windows Vista: Open the Documents\ Documents on <device name’s> Device folder.
On your Treo, you can find the synchronized file by doing either of the following:
Press Start  
and 
select 
Office Mobile. Select the application that opens the file: Word 
Mobile, Excel Mobile, PowerPoint Mobile, or OneNote Mobile.
Press Start , 
select 
Programs, and then select File Explorer. Select the list in the 
upper-left corner and select My Device > My Documents.
Did you know?
The 
Documents on <device name’s> Device
 folder is created when you 
select the option to sync files.
