Hello all, is there a way to hide the connecting dialog when a device is
creating a connection? I do not want my users to see this so that do not
have a chance to hit cancel.
 
Yes, you need to take care of invoking Connection Manager (normally done by
the runtime for you) and specify connection priority as
HighPriorityBackground

If you open the connection manually, and request it to be exclusive to
your app, you don't get the dialog box - but it becomes very hard to
manage it well, in my experience, and if you get it wrong, you can end
up without the ability to connect from *any* application.

If you are taking about ActiveSync just add this key to the registry (you
can also create a .reg file to run on client PCs).

I hope to remember it correctly :P

HKCM/software/microsoft/windows ce servicies key "GuestOnly" as DWord.

If GuestOnly is 1 the connection windows won't pop up.

See you
