Hi All,

Im developing a keypad driver for smartphone Wince 5.0.

One requirement is to have hot keys which will launch applications
like contacts, email, speaker, camera, etc.

So basically I have to configure the hardware button to launch this applications.

Can anybody help me out with an example?

Regards,
Tomal

The hardware buttons are programmed by the user selecting shortcuts
placed into the \windows\appbuttons directory.

Put one of yours there, assign it to all buttons, then search the
registry for your app's filename and you should find it.
