Hi,

There are two thing i would like to know.
1. How can i prevent the shell (is it called Explorer too on PPC?) too
launch after soft-reset and start a other program.

2. If the user is already in explorer, how can i make it that if he
turns the device off, and then on again that my program starts again
and terminates explorer.

I've read something about question #1 on usenet and there should be a
registry key.

Muchos thanks!
Steven
 
Ok. The problem is i am rather new in the world of programming for
devices (i DO have experience with PHP etc.). So i do not really know
how i can make a .cpl of my application. Or is it just possible to
rename my file?
 
No problem with being new, we all were once.

Like I said you need to use native code (i.e. not C# or VB).

Your first place for looking up thing like this are MSDN. A quick search for
"cpl" points us here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...s/apippc/html/ppc_ppc_controlpanel_dlldef.asp

Searching this newsgroup usually revelas similar questions:

Also once you find a good site try searching it further.
For example the one you visited already has this:
http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/controlpanelapplet.html

...the blog I pointed you to in my previous message also has this:

Good luck!

Cheers
Daniel
