Application Launch from hardware buttons doesn't work

[Sue]

Hi,

The hardware buttons has been programmed to generate VK_APP_LAUNCH1
(0xC1), VK_APP_LAUCH2 (0xC2) to launch the Audio Record (button 1) and
Calendar (button 2) in pocketPC. However, 0xC1 /0xC2 doesn't launch the
corresponding applications. Please let me know if there is anything I
need to make it working?

Thanks.

Sue,

Have you made sure the data below is in your registry? Are you sure that
pressing the buttons is resulting in the correct sequence of generated
vitual keycodes? (Order is significant.) Have you run the applicaions
manually to make sure the executables are in your image and working
properly?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C1]
@="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Record.lnk\" -b"
"Name"="Button 1"
"Icon"="\\windows\\hotvoice.exe, 0"
"ResetCmd"="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Record.lnk\" -b"
"Flags"=dword:0

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C2]
@="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Calendar.lnk\""
"Name"="Button 2"
"Icon"="\\windows\\pimres.dll, -10002"
"ResetCmd"="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Calendar.lnk\""
"Flags"=dword:0

Tom,

Thanks for the information.

I have checked reginit.ini to make sure the registry has been included
properly and the application is run manually O.K. Then, it comes down if the
button doesn't generate the correct sequence of generated keycodes. Would you
please let me what the correct sequences are? My hardware button only
generates the VK_APP_LAUNCH1 (0xC1), and is any other keycode needed?
