Haven't messed with the Pocket PC lately, but a while back I bounced scripts to the Pocket PC quite easily. The one I have has a Wireless LAN interface. So all I had to do was access a file server I have. I could create a script using my PC which is saved on the file server then load it directly onto the Pocket PC. As such, I could use the PC keyboard which was much easier to use and the bigger screen to see more. I could do a quick test to see how the script runs on the PC then load it on the Pocket PC to try it for real.
First, you can access files from a Pocket PC with a wireless LAN the same way you would on a PC. To simply things I created a folder name in the config file for the file server (the names beginning with ~). Then I did the same on the Pocket PC, though it was a little more difficult as there is not a pretty configuration form to make it easy. You have to edit the config file. But it is still easy to load and edit the script. Now when I wanted to run a script I had just edited and did a preliminary test on my PC, I simply issued a load on the Pocket PC to run it there. No hassle, almost as fast as running it on my regular PC. If you're running XP then you could just share a directory on your PC then access it from your Pocket PC. But if you have VISTA it is a little more difficult. For some reason Microsoft went nuts with security on VISTA and I have had little success sharing anything except "public". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
