    - CeFlushDBVol problem I have a CE database stored in compact flash memory. Afer adding a new record to the database I call CeFlushDBVol to make sure data is written to the flash memory. The application is running on about 100 Pocket PC 2002 devices without any problems. Recently, I installed the application on 10 new Symbol PPT8860 with Pocket PC 2003 (CE 4.2). It works fine on 6 of them, but on 4 of them the call to CeFlushDBVol takes 6 to 7 seconds instead of the normal less than one second! Have anybody else noticed this strange behaviour? Are there any known bugs in CE databases at the moment (CE 3.x or CE 4.x)? Tag: WINEXEC Tag: 76833

    - e800 PPC -> USB Flash Drive Hi, I noticed that the Toshiba e800 supports a USB keyboard via Presentation Pack accessory. I am wondering if it is possible that it can support USB flash drives (I have a mini cruzer 256MB). Naturally I haven't seen anything mentioned in the documentation about this so I am assuming it doesn't. But would it be possible to write a program/driver to support USB Flash drives via Embedded Visual C++ for it? Just an idea. Tag: WINEXEC Tag: 76825

    - PocketPC 2003 unable to get device ID using KernelIoControl Hi, I can not get the device ID of PocketPC 2003 devices. I have been using the code at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetcomp/html/retrievedeviceid.asp The KernelIoControl call always returns a status of ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER. It tells me that the required buffer size is 36, but gives this error even when I set the buffer size to 36. I read in another post that it has something to do with PocketPC 2003 apps running in user mode only, which does not give me the permission to call KernelIoControl? If thats the case, is there any way in PocketPC 2003 to get a device ID? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tony Tag: WINEXEC Tag: 76823

Hello, i want to read out a DLL (e.g. coredll.dll and a few others, to see what functions are imported / exported, readable text inside the DLL) from my PocketPC, which is stored in ROM of my device. Is this possible ? I thought about touching the file (so OS is creating a copy of the file in RAM) or by just reading complete DLL and writing a copy to a new file. Is this possible ? Perhaps there is already a tool for doing this ? Regards, Martin Tag: WINEXEC Tag: 76790
