Hi Everyone,

I may be out of my depth here but I will ask anyway. Is it possible to
communicate with Activesync, so that for example, I have a series of
stored text files, and I want to push the data in these to maybe a Note
in woindows CE / Mobile, or maybe enter them as an email in pocket
outlook.

This needs to be able to be done without using other programs / OLE
automation on the host PC. The need is to be able to directly control /
work through Activesync.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Kind of hard to know where to start
with this one (for me anyway).

Cheers

The Frog

Check out the classes available on OpenNETCF.org ... I believe they
have what you are looking for

Thanks for the suggestions guys, i will give the c# libraries a try and
see how far I can get. It looks like it will be fairly complex to do,
but worth a try I think.

Thankyou both for your help.

Cheers

Hi Frog,

I have not looked at this recently, but I did do something similar using
Activesynch with VB6 a few years ago. Unfortunately I lost the source code.
I do not think it was too difficult to do.

Best wishes

Sorry, re-read this and I see your difficulties now about getting data
directly into textfiles.

Best wishes
