i'm trying to follow the instructions as to installing uk postcodes.
when it says
"Use Windows Explorer to copy the 'TTNControl.arm.cab' file to the 'My Documents' folder on your PPC. Then, using File Explorer on the PPC, locate this .cab file and double tap to install it. The .cab file will self delete following installation."
this part i'm having problems with?
once placing the cab file in my docs on the ppc, it won't install by double tapping?
i can extract the files before hand however and place them individually into my docs folder but not the way the instructions say?
can i do it this way or are the files in the cab file supposed to go into other folders?
i have noticed that there are 2 my docs?
Pocket_PC My Documents on the desktop with different folders than my documents which is in a folder along with database folder, built in storage and SD card etc so maybe i'm putting them in the wrong one?
many thanks |

Once you have the .cab file copied to your PocketPC you need to double tap it from within the File Explorer App on the PocketPC not via Explorer on the PC which I suspect is what you are doing?
If you copy the .cab file to the PocketPC My documents folder on your desktop this will automatically synchronise to the My Docs folder on your PocketPC after a few seconds (assuming the PPC is docked at the time!). _________________ Darren Griffin |
