Openning doc's "on the fly"

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

One of the reasons I purchased the iPAQ was its (stated) ability to open
Word, Excel, etc documents on the fly. Meaning, not moving them to the sync
folder first and then opening the documents. I have found that isn't the
case at all. I can get to my folder on my network but the documents do not
seem to have an extension.
What I am looking to do is to get to my folder on the network and then "tap"
the specified document while I am in my warehouse (which has wireless access
points) and modify my document without having to sync up, etc.

Please help.

Thank you!!

most word and excel docs should open without a problem when copied
directly to the pc.

The issue you are reporting is the fact that pocket file explorer does
not have the ability to directly "open" files on network shares... you
can, however, copy them to the ppc and open them.

Other third party file explorers have the ability to open files from a
network share such as Resco's file explorer.

Note that complex documents will not show advanced features and if any
"edits" are performed on complex documents, the advanced features _will
be permanently lost_ when the ppc closes and saves the file back to the
share.
