Yes, I've experienced the same problem.
My dxcard program (with source, available on my site)
will not re-read the card directory properly if a card is 
replaced with a different one.  Even if I used the TestCard function to 
check for it, apparently the firstfile and nextfile functions cache the 
directory somewhere and I do not know how to re-initialize them to 
re-read off the card.
