How do you reference a file on a handheld ?

[Rob]

I simply want to copy a file using the File.Copy(strSource,strDest) format

On a handheld device how do you reference a file.... what is the beginning
of the path ?

On a server it is \\servername\folder

On a desktop it is C:\Foldername

I see my handheld has My Device as a root... I tried referencing it as \\My
Device but that does not appear to work.

Thanks !

Hi,
You need to use single slash for referencing the path. It is
like:

\My Device\folder
\Program Files\YourApp

Your device shows up that way becasue of a shell extension in ActiveSync.
It's not actually reachable as a file path from teh desktop. To copy to/from
the device from the PC, you need to use RAPI. Take a look at this:
