Hi,

I have an application that takes inputs from a barcode scanner that is
running Windows CE 5.0 and it populates a listbox with the readings.

I need to create a text file and write the items in the listbox to it so it
can be uploaded to another program.

Do I create the file on the device or on the computer that is it is
activesync too?

thanks.
JN

Create the text file on the device, then you can use Activesync (or Rapi) to
move the file to the desktop computer.

Yes, same way. Except there are no drive letters, no relative paths and
devices can't see your desktop hard drive (as some developers seem to
believe).
