Hello

I'm workoing with a Ipaq 4150 and have it connected via Wifi to my Main PC.

Internet and ActiveSync are both working on my 4150 but.

How can a Explorer file's on the Main PC?
( the Map's are already "shared" on the Main PC Running Windows Xp)

If I want to excpore files with the file explorer the question "Open Path"
pop up.
What do I have to file-in there?

Thanks

Rolf

To open a share on your PC, you enter \\<computername>\<sharename>, so
if your computer was named MSOFT and your share named PERSONAL, you'd
enter \\MSOFT\PERSONAL

That means your entire machine is shared, which is not the best idea in the
world.

I Know

But the internet is blocked by the firewall, the wifi has a small range.

And only two maps are shared so I can download music and other thinks to my
Ipaq.

Verry need with a 11Mbps (Ipaq-wifi-Computer) connection ;-)
