How to get Contact information from Speed Dial database in WM5?
|
|
| wm5dev@hotmail.com 2006-01-18, 3:59 am |
| In Windows Mobile 5.0, the speed dial database (speed.db) is stored
within "pim.vol" located in the root directory. I can access the
records winthin this database and get the display names and index
stored with the speed dial entries. However I am unable to get a valid
OID that links the speed dial entry with an Outlook contact entry. I'm
using the getItemFromOid function, but I can't seem to get a valid OID
from the speed dial records. Does anyone know how this is done? Is
this the proper way to get the contact infomation that is associated
with a speed dial entry?
Thanks in advance

does your code work with 2003? are you getting the value from field 0x0006?
eg: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...ases%2Fspeed.db
i only use the db for speed dial entries to apps.

| Thanks for the reply. Yes, the code does work for CE 2003. But in WM5
it has changed. I can access the information in the 0x0006 field...
but none of the stored information pertains to a valid Outlook Contact
OID like the way it does with 2003.
