• MNaveed windows mobile 2005 contact location

  I am wanting to create an application that backups up my contacts to the storage card. the problem I am having is finding where the contact are saved. I am not talking about the sims contact, but the outlook contact. Any suggestions using MIcrosoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook; OutlookSession session = new OutlookSession(); foreach( Contact contact in session.Contacts.Items ) { // write all contact fileds here to your own storage } The easiest way to store a contact to a file would be to use BinaryWriter.Write on each property. Consequently you will use BinaryReader.Read to restore them later any example coding in c#. I was thinking that the contacts were located somewhere that ...Show All

• Robert R. Richter Command line parameters for .NET v2 installation, and SQL CE 3 installation

  Two questions in one really.... I need to control the installation of these components with zero interaction from the device owner - they will just drop it in a cradle and I will programatically do the rest. I can use RAPI to interact with the device, but all the CAB's I use seem to install ask for installation area and then give an end prompt when finished. Are there any command line options I can use when the CAB's are run via CreateProcess or CeCreateProcess to default any options the user may have had to make and remove the end screen - essentialy I need to make silent installations If there are no command line options, then are there ini files or equivalents than can be used in this way Can I also control the device reset ...Show All

• the_kid Code Migration Tool

  Hi, this is my first time on this web. We are having a problem, we started developing a corporate website and, nowadays we want to publish this site for mobile devices. When we try to access the website from a mobile device we found some errors. The website works and behaves correctly (no errors appear) but we have to re-develop some things in a different way, prepared for mobile devices. I want to know if this option is correct (re-develop some things) or there is a tool that allows you to convert desktop-prepared code for mobile-prepared code.

• ProjectDev Live Alerts SDK - auto subscribe bot user?

  Hi, I have access to a Live Alerts SDK account, and since our company creates MSN chatbots, I was wondering if the following is possible: I would like a bot's user be subscribed to an Alerts group automatically. Of course the bot first asks the user for confirmation "Would you like to receive the latest news via Live Alerts " I understand from the SDK docs that subscribing someone to alerts first requires a redirect to the sign-up page hosted on Live Alerts, in a browser . Is there really no other way What if my sign-up application would run inside a Messenger Activity. Could I somehow get the user's Live ID (since he already signed in on Messenger) and use that data to subscribe the user to an Alerts feed, all the time&nb ...Show All

• MA2005 System.CF namespce missing

  I'm using .Net Compact Framework 2.0SP1 and VS 2005. VS2005 doesn't recognise any System.CF* namespaces. Any ideas If there's no updated version, it should be possible to use it in V2 from code without designers. Just make sure to reference _runtime_ version of the control, not design time version. When I try to add a third-party control to my toolbox I get a message like: "There was an error loading types from assembly... Could not load file or assembly 'System.CF.Windows.Forms, Version..." do I just have a dodgy dll That's because there are no System.CF* namespaces. This message is saying there's no such assembly, it's not saying a ...Show All

• johnof Can I change the pushpin text?

  I have seen this question asked here before but without a conclusive answer. (Slap me if my search was sloppy).

• ChKa Is anyone buying VE transactions?

  Hello, I posted something similar to this earlier but no one responded. We want to transition more of our maps to VE but we're not sure how to merge VE into our existing MWS account. Is there something programmatic that we need to do (i.e. proxy the calls through our server so we can affix an account ID to the requests) Currently, we pay about $500 per month for MWS services and just use VE under the "5000 transactions or less per day" for a few of our maps. An associated question is, does MWS dish up the same map style as VE (tiling, etc.) From what I can see, it doesn't. Thanks, Jeff I'm still waiting Jeff. But I have a very different need in my licensing. If you're a current MapPoint customer you should ...Show All
