Re: Windows Mobile Device Center does not translate Pocket Word and Pocket Excel


I've got the same problem. WMDC imports all my Word and Excel files (I
have over 1200 on my pda) in raw ppc format (pws and pxl). I thought it
was the fault of Office XP vs Vista (I could read those files fine on
Office XP with Windows XP) and that when I bought Office 2007 I'd be
able to read the ppc files on my PC. No such luck. It will import rtf
files, so I've translated literally hundreds of doc files into rtf
format; however I don't see ANY workaround for the spreadsheet files. I
even tried openoffice on my Vista machine. It won't read those files
either.

I'm running ppc 2003 on an iPAQ 2755. Have been using them FINE for
over a year on XP and using various versions of ActiveSync.

I'm close to paying the computer shop that built my machine for me to
put XP on my brand new machine unless I can get some answers.

Is there any way to get Microsoft to talk about these problems for
brand new software?

Help,

Patrick
