Read my article about passing settings on AeroXP For checkboxes, you need: HTML: <input unselectable="on" type="checkbox" id="myID" title="yourTitle">my text and to reference that in code: System.Gadget.Settings.write("mySetting", myID.checked); myID.checked = System.Gadget.Settings.read(" mySetting "); Tag: Sidebar Gadget Development File operations Smart Device Development

- Question on removing InstallDir from [CEStrings] section of INF file Are you using VS CAB project to generate CAB with empty application folder If so that won't work - VS always adds InstallDir macro into INF it generates. Create INF CAB manually without InstallDir and build CAB from command line. Tag: Sidebar Gadget Development File operations Smart Device Development

- httpwebrequest I don't think it's a good idea to convert from one language to another line by line. The better approach would be to figure out (functional specs) what the old program is doing and implement in other language. For example, you know that your Java program connects to a web server and retreives the data from it, so you should be able to find a code sample that does that in .NET and adapt it to your requirements. To answer your "Cookies" question, take a look at this old post of mine: http://blog.opennetcf.org/ayakhnin/PermaLink,guid,ae434e4b-12b0-4c12-8b43-c249ab2facce.aspx Tag: Sidebar Gadget Development File operations Smart Device Development

- Redistribution of .net framework 2.0 Common practice is to just install NETCF CABs the very same way as your own CAB ¨C as described in the article you¡¯ve mentioned. That can be done by adding NETCF CABs to the MSI, adding another INI file and calling CeAppMgr twice ¨C NETCF INI first, your application INI next. CAB file itself would check if newer version of NETCF is already installed so you don¡¯t have to. It can be done via RAPI but RAPI can be disabled on some devices.

- VS .NET to VS.NET 2005 It seems that the date format you were using before is nolonger supported by the normal "Parse" method. If the format is consistent, you can probably get it to work using ParseExact. If you can determine the exact date format that was supported in 2003 but is not supported in 2005, you may consider filing it as a bug to be fixed in the next version. -Ryan / Kardax Tag: Sidebar Gadget Development File operations Smart Device Development

- Out of memory exception on WinCE5.0 Hi world, I've a problem related of lack of memory. Running application the memory is OK. When I start to navigate inside the forms the momory continue increasing and an error "Out of memory" is generated. I thought the problem was the "not disposed bitmaps" so, when I close the forms I'm disposing all the bitmap used but the problem have not solved. In the application I use many System.Windows.Forms.Timer. Sombody know if the not correct use of "Timer" can create memory problem When I close the forms I'm setting: Timer.Enable = False Timer.Dispose() for all the Timer used.

- resize the gadgets by default What browser/os combination are you using I have seen some intermittent issues with IE7 and I know the dev team is also aware of the issue. That code you have added has nothing to do with your resizing issues. What I have done to combat this is to create a div inside of the gadget that I use as a container for everything else. You will have more control of the height of that div than you will of the gadget container. The gadget should do a better job of wrapping itself around your content. I believe a height of between 240px and 250px is a good size for Spaces gadgets as it will not force any gadgets below your gadget to jump down into the next row, depending on the user's layout of course. I would start there. Tag: Sidebar Gadget Development File operations Smart Device Development

- how to load dll file in smartphone? Hi This is definitly a problem with the 'vam.dll' binary. I assume you copied DLL you're using on the desktop to the device. This will not work - you need a version made for Windows Mobile 2003 based devices. If this 'vam.dll' is a third party component, contact the vendor to get a Smartphone 2003 version. If you have the source code (C/C++) for this component: Use Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 to port it to Windows Mobile 2003.

- Decrypt a text file using TripleDES Hi Matteoathen, I think your problem is that you are not setting the Key and Initialisation Vector (IV) properties of the TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider . This is causing the TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider to generate random Key and IV values, which will not be able to successfully decrypt your message. To decrypt your message, you must set the Key and IV properties to the same values you used during the encryption process. You may find the following blog entries on my blog of interest: Encrypt and decrypt the contents of a file created on a mobile device - http://www.christec.co.nz/blog/archives/85 Symmetric Key Encryption on the Compact Framework - http://www.christec.co.nz/blog/archives/81 The first blog entry is a sample application (source is available to download) which should demonstrate how you can encrypt and decrypt the contents of a file. While the second blog entry, discusses the specifics of how encryption works within the .NET Compact Framework in more detail. Any feedback on these posts would be greatly appreciated.

- Checking programatically if POCKET PC is cradled ?? Hi, Losely speaking Windows Mobile is simply later editions of Pocket PC. If you are using a Windows Mobile 2005 (or higher) device you should be able to use the following code to detect the presence of a cradle (don't forget to include references to Microsoft.WindowsMobile and Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status assemblies). using Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status; if (SystemState.CradlePresent) MessageBox .Show( "Cradle is present" ); else MessageBox .Show( "Cradle is not present" ); This property is documented on MSDN here http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.windowsmobile.status.systemstate.cradlepresent.aspx If you are using a pre Windows Mobile 2005 device the situation is a little more tricky, as far as I am aware there is no officially documented technique to detect the situation, except for things such as using CeRunAppAtEvent ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms913956.aspx ) to wake your application when the NOTIFICATION_EVENT_RS232_DETECTED event occurs and this is not as neat as simply querying a boolean property. There is a good forum posting on this second technique including ways to call this API from C# or VB.NET available here http://www.opennetcf.org/forums/topic.asp TOPIC_ID=783 . This post also includes references to a pre-written wrapper available as part of OpenNETCF MSDN also contains an article which contains a wrapper for this function to detect activesync syncronisations available here http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa446536.aspx .

- regarding the Image transition Hi sadiq, Base on my understanding, you want to implement Image Transition using some API, if I have misunderstood you, please let me know, thanks. I am not aware of some API to implement it. But you can implement it without it. you can change the image location to move it from left to right or right to left. Code Block private void button1_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { this .pictureBox1.Location = new Point ( this .pictureBox1.Location.X + 20, this .pictureBox1.Location.Y); } Best regards, Guang-Ming Bian - MSFT Tag: Sidebar Gadget Development File operations Smart Device Development

- MouseDown like event in Windows Mobile 5.0 for Poket PC Hello Alex, Actually, MouseDown event isn't supported by the .NET compact Framework.

- CE 5.0 Emulator with ActiveSync capabilities The error message usually means someone has the msi database open in something like orca or it is locked up. If that isn¡¯t the case then it sounds like it could be a bad msi. A good thing to try is to copy the msi and run the copy. That will tell you if it is a bad msi or if it was just locked up by someone. Tag: Sidebar Gadget Development File operations Smart Device Development

damn you MSDN! System.Gadget.itemFromPath isn't listed in the sidebar reference.
If it was, I'd have spent the last 2 hours doing something better with my time! Please update MSDN as soon as you can so developers aren't scratching their heads for ages.
