Creating partnerships over bluetooth

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Hi all,

I have a fresh PC on which I just installed Activesync. I dont have my USB
dradle, but my axim has bluetooth and the PC has a bluetooth dongle. I am
able to create a com connection between the two devices.

However Activesync doesnt seem to see the Axim. It finds the com ports, but
then just ignores the fact that the Axim is connected to it.

Is it possible to create initial partnerships in this way? I think I have to
get to the connection settings; but clicking this seems to bring up the "get
connected" dialog, so I can't.

Any ideas?

That worked after a few goes. Thanks Eric!
