Hi people,

I'm very keen to start using Pocket Soap with my Sybase Pocket Builder
application - on my WinCE.Net (WinCE v5.00) handhelds.. but seem to have the
same problem as this original post...

Everything *seems* to install by itself through ActiveSync but then the demo app
(psQuote2.exe) fails with error:

"Cannot find psQuote2.exe or one of it's components"...


I read Simon's post about regsvrce.exe, but don't understand about COM
registration and couldnt find this EXE, so please expand a little if that's what
I need to do!


Please help!


Thanks in advance...


Andrew Winter
