invoking external application

[Alvin Tan]

Hello all,

I'm manage to invoke pword.exe application from my PocketPC apps, however, I
couldn't really set the properties of the opened document. I'm trying to set
my the font size and font of the document but can't seem to find a way. If
any of you people can help, it'll be great!

This is the fragment of code used to invoke pword.exe application:

private void InvokeWord( )
{
ProcessInfo pi = new ProcessInfo();
CreateProcess("pword.exe", "", IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, 0, 0,
IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, new Byte[128], pi);
}

Any suggestions?

Cheers
Alvin

Hi,
only way I could think would be to get it to open an existing empty document
with the correct font and font size.

Thanks Pete for your reply.

Even opening an existing document, I can't really configure the properties
of that document through VS .NET. Do you think it is possible to modify the
font registry file in the PocketPC/WinCE.NET?

Thanks again

Cheers
Alvin
