ok first im looking for a calculator that will display the calculations that are taking place - kinda like those old style printing calcs...

I think ACEit does it - but was wandering if there was anything prettier... :)

2nd Q...

is there any way i can replace the defauly PPC explorer - so like when i open a folder it goes to another explorer instead of the one that came with the PPC?

Q2. Advance Explorer is only $3.00. Look at View MyPDA I have a link for this.

2: Total Commander for Pocket PC is a great freeware file explorer replacement. Open your folders with this one instead of explorer.

What are you using to put the folder on your Today Screen?

a program called - pocket plus - it is in trial form - could this be a reason?

No I've got PocketPlus and I'm trying to change the folder viewer now. I'll need a little time. ;)

Okay, I don't think it can be done with PocketPlus. Folders don't have file extensions so I couldn't change file associatons for folders.

Have you looked at PPX3K? It's another Today Screen Enhancer but it's more hands-on that is to say you get more/have to set more options to set it up. Look on www.ppx3k.com, try the trial and let us know what you think. Personally it's to much work to setup to me but some folks like it.

Take a look at this excellent review of calculators and other math proggies :

Possibly a registry hack? I'm not sure but I'll look into it. Oddly enough I use SPB Pocket Plus and I've never noticed this option... But then again I'm not sure how old my copy is. I should look and see about upgrading.
