Hi everybody.
I've been exploring PPL and racking my brain with it for the last 10 days. As all my previous experience with programming has been in various forms of BASIC, it has been very hard to make the transition to PPL's C-style. I'm trying to create a Windows Mobile application for both touchscreen and non-touchscreen devices that provides the equivalent of the Run dialog you get in the PC when you press WindowsKey+R. I finally got down the WORST part of the project, getting the ShellExecuteEx function to actually launch the item (at least on the PC), yet I'm stuck in what is supposed to be the easiest part of the program - the UI. ![]() As you can see from the picture above, I already have the UI perfectly designed. The problem is that this wasn't in PPL! I just can't find out how to make the softkeys in PPL, and a search in this forum didn't have a relevant thread. I got used to creating a menu bar with just 2 menus and have them automatically converted to softkeys, as is the case with other less capable dev tools, but I guess that was too much to expect here after all. How does one create softkeys and their menus in PPL? Thanks in advance. |

You should be able to import the _SOFTKEYCMD function from aygshell.dll
check http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb416694.aspx for the _SOFTKEYCMD structure, and then search the forum for examples on how to call external DLL functions. This would be the way that I would tackle this particular problem. Regards Mike. |
