Everything I noted

Overview

In order to synchronize, the Documents To Go® Desktop for BlackBerry® smartphones application must be installed on a computer.  In addition an application called Documents To Go Files must be installed on the BlackBerry smartphone. When installed, files can be synchronized between the computer and BlackBerry smartphone via USB cable. Once the files are set to synchronize, any changes made will automatically be transferred upon synchronization.

IMPORTANT – The handheld application named Documents To Go Files is not the same as the application named Documents To Go. These applications are different applications that need to be installed separately.

Documents To Go – This is the main part of the Documents To Go software installed on the BlackBerry smartphone. It is made up of 3 applications (Word To Go, Sheet To Go, and Slideshow To Go) and can be found either in a Documents To Go folder (BlackBerry Device Software 4.5) or in the Applications folder (Starting in Blackberry Device Software 4.6). It is used to open, edit and create Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files and is not involved in the synchronization process.
Documents To Go Files – This is a separate application installed on the BlackBerry smartphone which synchronizes with Documents To Go Desktop for BlackBerry on the computer via USB. It is installed separately from the main Documents To Go application and can be found on the BlackBerry smartphone Home Screen (BlackBerry Device Software 4.5) or in the Downloads folder (Starting in BlackBerry Device Software 4.6). It can also be used as a file browser for the BlackBerry smartphone.
