Hi,

thought I'd try and pickt he collective brains of the gadgeteers once more.

My wife has an iPAQ 5550 with TomTom BT GPS.

We have found that when you want to set up the equipment, you have to first turn BT on, then connect to the GPS receiver, then fire up the TomTom software.

What I'd like to do is create a single clickable link that can be assigned to a button, or added to the Start menu, that achieves all these things in one step (like a 3 line batch file).

Is there any way we can do this easily without spending any money on software?

Can anyone advise?

Many thanks.

Bongo

You could give a try to VITO Button Mapper ( http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=36124 ). It will hopefully work OK on your WM2003 device.
