Copy file from ROM to SD card

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

Hello!

I want to copy a file from ROM (\windows\citydb.dll) on a iPAQ 6340 to SD
card or the PC.
Anybody knowing a way how to copy a file from ROM to another location? I
tried several tools, but always fail.

Would appreciate any help!

Thanks and cheers

Thank you for answer!

I do not want to "overwrite" rom based files, but I want to retrieve the
citydb.dll to investigate in its DLL entries (exports/imports), because I
want to use it for timezone setting together with a eVC program.

Regards
Peter
