Hi,
I have an Ipaq 2190, WM2003 and a PC with WinXP Pro with Office XP.
I make notes on my Ipaq with written and typed text and I also make drawings in the same notes. After sync, I can open the files with Word XP and I can see the written and typed text but I can't see the drawings I made.
When I transfer them back to Ipaq, I can see everything OK: the text and the drawings.
I use active Sync 4.1.
Do I miss something om my PC or what do I do wrong?
Thx,
JD

I have no problem seeing drawing in .pwi files using Word 2003 on the desktop. It should show up as embedded object. Make sure you have File Conversion option on desktop activesync enable.

Some corrections, I do not have Wm2003 but WM5 (my previous Ipaq was WM2003) and I do not have Word 2003 but Word 2002 (XP).
I 've been searching a bit now and I have found a review of WM5 stating that it's no longer possible to transfer images created with Notes to Word (on a pc)
Maybe with an update? The article was dated may 10,2005.
Thx
