I feel screwed again!
Hi all: This is not looking good. MY wife asked me to update an application on her smartphone (XV6700 running WM5). THis application syncs drug information which she uses in the Hospital as a physician. I had recently installed Vista on our computer and had successfully setup WMDC. No problemo I say. So I go to install the latest version - oops it won't install. Seems the application will only install with ActiveSync and it does not recognize WMDC. I can't just copy over the cab files and install the update manually as this application syncs with a database over the net to update it's drug library with current data. It seems to me MS should have seen this issue coming don't you? I mean they have pruduced pdas for 7 years which rely on Activesync and then they go and change things without providing a way to at least install the old version?? All help greatly appreciated, Chris. -- cmosentine |

What does the manufacturer say about Windows Vista compatibility.
Check with others using the same tools how they use Windows Vista. You may need to go back to Windows XP until the manufacturer decides to support Windows Vista for their products. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "cmosentine" wrote in message ...
