Hi again, hoping someone may have had an answer to this one...

I have left mine in for very long periods of time with no problem. When I
am home I use the card as a hard drive to transfer pictures between desktop
and laptop.

The reason I asked is that I'm leaving it in and performing a backup of my
excel spreadsheets to it whenever I add something new to them...

It's so much faster than having to pop in a CD and burn the sheets to that..

Have you tried one of these USB memory things? I've just got myself a 25
meg one that is a key ring which is a handy backup, plus, in the
unlikely event of this building getting destroyed I should have a copy
of the data still in existence!
