RAPI functionality in Compact Framework?

[Dan]

Is there any? If so, what namespace is it in, and are there any articles
about it? Thanks...Dan

RAPI calls are made from the desktop, not the device, so they are made with
the full framework, not the CF. See the OpenNETCF Communication library for
a managed wrapper.

Thanks Chris. I had found it before I got your response. I successfully
ran the sample on the site ("CSharpRAPI"). However, when I tried to use it
from an Installer Class as part of a setup project, I got the following
message when creating a new RAPI object:

"Unable to create ActiveSync object. Make sure ActiveSync is installed The
specified module could not be found."

Do you have any thoughts about what might be going on?

Thanks...

Dan

The installer must be run as a user who has rights to use ActiveSync.

I was running it on an account with administrator privileges. Is it
possible something else might have been at play? BTW, if it's any help, the
message appeared to be getting thrown when the ActiveSync object was being
instantiated; however, strangely, the phrase "The specified module could not
be found." was appended to the message which ActiveSync appeared to throw.
