More IT Fun
IT builds a new help desk system for the organization where this pilot fish works, and it's a big improvement.
"Now users could enter help desk tickets from anywhere and have the ticket routed to the right person," says fish.
"Our CIO made the decision that this help desk could be used for anything, PC-related or not. For example, it could be used for building maintenance requests.
"About three days into the new help desk, a ticket is entered requesting building service -- there was a window leaking.
"My CIO was reading all of the calls. To this one he dutifully responded: 'Please enter your version of Windows when opening a ticket.'"

Acrobat Reader Working w/***** 5.1
Hi, all.
I have Adobe Acrobat Reader 1.0 working under ***** 5.1.
- Go to http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html, select "PocketPC" as your OS, fill out the form and download the product.
- Install via ActiveSync. (Note: I always install by cancelling at the 'install to where?' prompt and then transferring the CAB file to the BE and running it there. I don't know if ActiveSync installs it differently.)
- Grab this file. Thanks to Unslinger for finding versions of DOCLIST.DLL and AYGSHELL.DLL that make this possible.
- Unzip the file and copy the DLLs into Acrobat's Reader folder on your BE.
- Reader should now work. You should find two sample PDF files in Nand Disk/My Documents.
Cheers,
-Bill, Ottawa, ON

Aygshell.dll is the same one I had, but doclist.dll is different. I'll give it try. This is great news!

Whoa, now I'm impressed! Great job, it works like a charm.
A couple of comments, that zip file you posted downloaded as a file with no extension (I just renamed it to .zip) and when you unzip it it creates 2 dirs, Desktop and Mips, so I just copied the files from these dirs to the Reader dir.

Just tried it with my BE, which still runs Xpod4.0 (jajaja... still with that older release). It works beautifully! Still trying to see what the largest pdf-file size it can handle, sofar a pdf file of 1.3Mb has no problems! Got some internal ones floating around of 12Mb (technical docs).... *evil grin* Now... what about pdf in landscape?

Couldn't get to fit the 12Mb pdf file on my small card (only 32Mb and it's quite stuffed already). So I tried both a 5Mb and 6Mb file. Both loaded into the reader without a problem, but the reader had more trouble with the 6Mb file, while the 5Mb file was still easy to use (in terms of flipping through the pages, changing zoom, etc.), the 6Mb file was sluggish.

I copied them to the patch directory. They're the same dlls that make SimCity2000 work so that way I don't need two copies of them. Good to know that they work from the program directory as well, in case I need the other version of the dlls to get some other program to work.
