I have a Palk Treo 500v running WM6

The home screen has a up coming events plug-in but only seems to show the
next. Could anyone recommend a third party app that is more flexible?

It does? That surprises me because the Palm is not a Smartphone, it is a WM
Professional device, with a touch screen. The instructions are how to edit
the SP homescreen XML to incorporate the plug-in. That sort of thing is not
required on a WMPro device.

A.N. Onymous Esq:

It looks good. Is there an English version? I'm talking about the word
Kontake on the screen.

Thanks!

No need - just download the last cab file on the list and copy across to
your smart phone, then run it to install it.

Copy the code on the page into whatever xml file you are using as your home
screen theme - these files are found in Application Data/Home

This is the code I used



clsid="{0AC40715-A683-4C21-9736-D8BDDE8C9A99}"

name="CBReminder"
font-size="19"
font-weight="bold"
font-face="nina"
padding-left="2"
padding-right="4"
line-compress="3"
maxheight="65"
minheight="15"
days="7"
daysallday="3"
fgcolor="#FFFFFF"
bgcolor="TRANSPARENT"
showdayofweek="true"
action="\Windows\calendar.lnk"
>



You can alter days and daysallday to your needs and your screen

I suggest you make a back up of the .xml file before you try to alter it!

My mistake. I keep forgetting about that thing. Palm has been making touch
screen WM devices for a while and calling them Smartphones, I forgot they
made one that actually is one.
