    - Printing RTF file w/ embedded images (HP Mobile Printing) Using the latest version of HP Mobile Printing on PPC 2003, I am unable to print RTF files with embedded images in them. In the previous version of the software, I was able to do this. Is there a particular image format that is supported? Does anyone have an example RTF or PWD file with embedded images that prints from the latest HP Mobile Printing software? Thanks, Arthur Tag: Database options: Sql CE, Pocket Access, Sql 2005?

    - Identifying an appointment as a Birthday event? I'm trying to identify if an existing, recurring appointment is a birthday event. MS-Outlook will create these recurring appointments if you define a birthday date in the Contacts database. If I scan the "appointments database" database, I do see field "0x0016 (BLOB)" having a unique value of "40 00 00 00" for all birthday appointments. Pocket-Outlook doesn't seem to provide any methods for their IAppointment object to determine if an appointment is a birthday event or not. I don't want to scan the appointment database directly from my application to check for this (since it is not recommended by MS). Has anyone figured out a way to determine if an appointment is a birthday event using Pocket-Outlook calls? Thanks, ppcinfo Tag: Database options: Sql CE, Pocket Access, Sql 2005? Tag: 92844

    - waveOutGetPosition bug with TIME_MS I recently discovered a bug in waveOutGetPosition on some (maybe all?) Pocket PC's. The bug is the following: When position.wType = TIME_MS, a call to waveOutGetPosition(wave_handle, &position, sizeof(position)) is supposed to return the output wave position in milli-seconds in position.u.ms. See the documentation for waveOutGetPosition and MMTIME. But the value returned in position.u.ms is NOT the wave buffer position in milliseconds (e.g. on the e800, the value seems to be expressed in 1/100,000 sec). This problem likely comes from the fact that MSFT provided no test for the OEM to check the correct implementation of their audio driver with regard to this function. When position.wType = TIME_SAMPLES, position.u.sample is the correct number of un-played samples in the wave driver's queue. The TIME_SAMPLES case is well tested because that's how all the video applications get correct audio/video sync, so this case is in essence tested by WMP. I suspect that waveOutGetPosition with position.wType = TIME_MS (or values other than TIME_SAMPLES) is bogus or un-reliable on most (all?) Pocket PC's and Smartphone. It would be nice to document this "bug" or "feature", i.e. to indicate that on WinCE, only position.wType = TIME_SAMPLES is supported (and other values of position.wType will return random results).

    - Capturing stylus clicks into a sequend, and then repeat them (macros) Hi What kind of applications are there that are able to capture the stylus clicks on a PPC device; and then replay the clicks later? ie. I want to record a sequence of stylus clicks on an application, and then use this sequence to do automated testing of some softwares. Does such tools exists for the PPC environment. Then just for curiousity, what API should I look at to get more information about this. Is it possible to capture the stylus clicks? It must be if you put a window on top of everything, that records the clicks. But how do you later fake a stylus click on an application? Can I only use window events for such thing, or do I need more sophisticated APIs than that? //Erik -- REMOVE _NO_SPAM_ from email for the real email -- Tag: Database options: Sql CE, Pocket Access, Sql 2005?

    - Negative difference between QueryPerformanceCounter values Hello, For an application I am writing I am time stamping each byte as it comes in. I am using the following code to read in the byte and record it as it comes in. I then find the difference between the times at which the bytes came and build a new array of time differences. The only thing is that sometimes I get negative values within this differential time array which doesnâ??t make much sense to me. Other times Iâ??ll get almost all negative values with a few positive ones. The only reasons I can think of is that the performance counter loops around and the occasional negative value is the result of this. But, does that explain the times when I get a majority of negative values with a few positives? If I replace the ReadFile with a sleep(10) I get times that make sense. Hereâ??s a stripped down version of my code: LARGE_INTEGER times[1000]; LARGE_INTEGER time; if (WaitCommEvent(m_hIRPort, &commEvent, NULL)) { while (numRead && bufNdx < 1000) { ReadFile(m_hIRPort, buffer + bufNdx, 1, &numRead, NULL); QueryPerformanceCounter(&time); times[bufNdx] = time; bufNdx++; } } __int64 adjTimes[1000]; for (int ndx = 1; ndx < bufNdx; ndx++) adjTimes[ndx] = 1000000 * (times[ndx].QuadPart - times[ndx-1].QuadPart) / freq.QuadPart; Kyle Tag: Database options: Sql CE, Pocket Access, Sql 2005?

I have 2 buttons on the login page one is login and the other is exit, when I pass the username and password as Commandline args to Createprocess and try to login, instead of login the exit button is clicked. I can see the login page and the application immediately exits. The application to which I want the user to login is a 3rd party application so I cannot make any modifications to that. Is there a way that I can direct the control to the login button so that the user can log in. Also the user shouldnt know that he is logging to a 3rd party application so I cannot call createprocess without the arguments too. Any help is appreciated.

    - HP 4700 slowwwwwwww deploy in Visual studio 2003? Hello Our company recently aquired an HP 4700 PDA for testing a PocketPC application. The overall size of the .NET dlls and executables for the application are less than 2MB and we connect using a fast USB port to a P-4 HT 3 GHz processor class machine on which we run MSVS 2003. For some reason the deployment is extremely slow when we try to deploy and debug from Visual Sudtio (Build->Deploy) or (Debug->Run). We tried deploying to both main memory as well as an SD card and in both instances the thing keeps deploying for 4-5 actual minutes. It works in the end but its very frustrating sitting there and waiting, especially since MSVS also freezes up during the time. Anyone had similiar experiences with the HP 4700? Any suggested work-arounds? Thanks in advance! -Sachin Tag: Database options: Sql CE, Pocket Access, Sql 2005? Tag: 92773

    - Resolutions higher than VGA on Dell Axim x50v? Hi Dell sell a cable to connect the Axim x50v to an external VGA monitor. Does anyone know whether it's possible to tweak the display driver etc. to output higher resolutions than VGA, e.g. SVGA (800*600) or XGA(1024*768)? The particular use isn't to run the PPC interface at a higher resolution but rather for a custom OpenGL app using the PowerVR OpenGL ES hardware accelerated implementation. I know the graphics chip used by the Dell, Intel's 2700G chip is capable of higher resolutions, it's more a question of whether it's possible to tweak the PPC driver to enable those resolutions etc. Thanks Tag: Database options: Sql CE, Pocket Access, Sql 2005?

Its the first time i am getting in touch with .Net development, so what's the difference between C# and Visual Basic.Net and which one of them should i use? And by the way, which way is better, a two tier architecture with a client application on the pocket pc's accessing the database server directly, or a three tier architecture with a server application in between the client and the database? Thank you. Tag: Database options: Sql CE, Pocket Access, Sql 2005? Tag: 92687

    - Main form doesn't appear if there's an exception before it shows As part of pocketpc application startup I load several files into memory and test them for validity. All the code is protected by try/catch blocks. Unfortunately, even with this protection, my main form fails to display. Any ideas please.

    - does anyone know if this is possible? can anyone help me out and tell me if it is possible to do the following: on wireless-enabled pda's there is a little icon on the bottom right of the desktop that turns it ON / OFF. can this be controlled programatically? thanks.

I need to implemente a database footprint on my pocket-pc device (windows
mobile 2003). I see there are the following options: Sql CE, Pocket Access,
and Sql 2005 (possibly still in beta?). My application requires Merge
Replication w/ Sql Server 2003.

My question or confirmation is: I should use Sql CE unti Sql 2005 is
available, correct? Or is Pocket Access capable of Merge Replication, and
more "light weight"?

Thanks,

Pocket Access doesn't support merge replication, it is also deprecated for
future versions of Windows Mobile. Your best bet is to use Sql CE 2.0 now,
and then you should find it fairly easy to move to Sql Mobile 3.0 when it is
released later this year.
