How to read a txtfile using PocketPC emulator

[RickyUser6]

Hello,
I would like to read from a .txtfile using the PocketPC emulator. On previous programs, I copy the .txtfile under the bin folder and I am able to read it fine.

But using PocketPC, where do I put my .txtfile? Under the bin folder there is another folder, Debug. Ive tried putting it there, and it doesnt read it. Ive tried putting it on the bin and it doesnt read it either.

Any help?
thx

to put a file on the emulator open up My Computer on the emulator and type in the address bar your pc location eg \\MyPC\<SharedFolder> then you can copy it onto the emulator.

hi, thanks for your reply.
I couldnt find "My Computer" on the emulator. I saw Program Files and the name of my project is there. I dont know if thats where I need to put the txt file.

ah ok your using the pocket pc emulator....
maybe the best thing for you to do would be to use IIS on you PC and have a downloads page with the files you want to put on the device.
then open internet explorer on the emulator and browse the location on the pc http://<IP ADDRESS>/<FOLDER NAME>/downloads.html
