Hi All,
I have a requirement in my Pocket PC application. I can able to
fill the available printers in surroundings area to combo box. I want
to overwrite a default printer. Which means selected printer from
combo box is a default printer.

Please advice me

Regards,

Balasubramani,

How are you printing to the printer? Generally the OS doesn't know about any
default printers on Windows CE and printing is not provided by the OS.
 
Hi Ginny Caughey,

Thank you for your immediate reply, I am setting printer name
using control panel in pocket pc. Click control panel and enable blue
tooth and click acquire printers from wireless printer icon.
It would be listed all the printers and select a printer
then selected printers is a default printer for printing document. i
want to set the printer name throgh c# program same like control panel.
 
Ok, thanks. I don't have bluetooth on my PPC so I can't test this. But I'd
guess that the name is stored in the registry somewhere. If you can find the
location, you can change it using the Registry class on www.opennetcf.org.
