hi all,
I use word as a text editor for notes that run through my mind. I use the .txt format for speed reasons, but every time I close it I get the annoying message
"Saving this document in this format may remove some formatting. Do you want to save as Word instead?"
It's no big deal, but it's every time I edit a document. I tried to redefine the default Word format, and google the problem, but I didn't find anything. Does anyone have the same problem and eventually a workaround?

Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
Microsoft Office Word Mobile, Version 6.1
this isn't a problem. when you cast file formats you might lose some data.. it just informs you on that. I suggest you start using MoNotes (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403297) or MobilePad (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473197) instead.

Hi guys,
I've just been given a Windows mobile 6 based PDA for work, which is replacing my old Nokia, but I can't for the life of me find a way to create an SMS template.
On the Nokia, I could create the template, and then call that up each time I needed it (saving me from having to type (sometimes) quite complex commands).
can anybody please tell me how to do this on windows Mobile?

Cheers for that, but I have actually found a way to do it.
Create a new message,
click on the message area,
Menu > My text > Edit my Text Messages
and that allows you to create a template message.
It's not perfect, but it seems to work.
'lo.
Apologies, I'm a bit of a noob around here. I asked about this in IRC and I got a few half-answers. Essentially, I'm one of those guys who keeps logs of most things. That said, I want to remove the text messages from my phone, but have them backed up and readable on my computer.
The reason for wanting to remove them has to do with the fact that someone suggested that the 1500+ text messages are (for some silly reason... text... of all things) slowing down my Fuze. This would make sense, since I noticed that using Mystic Series, my phone has slowed down over time... and since text messages (non-graphical in nature) are all that I've gained, this theory would make sense.
I've used PIM Backup... but how do I backup text messages to my computer where I'm able to read them?
Many thanks!
if you have a mac you could use missing sync which has that option while on the pc side i believe theres another software for it. But you could also use vito sms chat to make a complete backup of each conversation thats readable by a computer...
hey im looking for this too, but for windows
ive already researched jeyo mobile extender and pocketexport
which one of those is better and is there anything else?
tried out pocketexport, wasn't able to get it to function. Was going to do Vito SMS Chat, but didn't get around to it.
I ended up using Microsoft MyPhone. I happened to stumble upon the SMS "Archive to Internet" feature. Unfortunately, you can't just select "Archive All". You have to go by pages of messages (I had to "Archive All" 122 pages). However, everything is backed up in a readable format online, and it removes it automatically from your phone, giving you the option to restore later.

One question. Does it put them back in there original threaded format?
Have you looked into Dashwire? It allows you to sync almost all of your phone content (or whatever you select) to a free online service. Text messages, contacts, pictures and videos, etc. I have been using it for a bit now and am pretty happy with it. If I can find a better option that will allow me to do this with a local machine I will take it as I would prefer to have everything on my own systems (I,too, am one who likes to keep copies of everything) and I have not yet tried to find a way to move the archives from the Dashwire service to my home systems.
The service definitely is not an ideal solution but it works for now.
myphone.microsoft.com. its awesome. use it.
Hello
I own an HTC Touch HD device running on WM6.1.
I have loaded quite a few external applications such as Pocket Informant and Flexmail onto my device because they're a lot better than the inbuilt ones. However, the problem is that the Word Completion setting will not work in these programs. This is the setting that, once you've typed in two letters, starts to give you words on the screen that you can then tap on rather than have to type in full. It saves a lot of typing time so diary entries, e-mails and text messages can be more quickly inputted and sent.
I was wondering if anyone could let me know how I can enable word completion to be triggered in all programs through maybe a registry hack or any other means. I would be very grateful for your assistance.
Regards
Nigel
Same problem here wit ha P6500, anyone??
Hi all,
I have a question on which I wasn't able to find an answer.
Every time I'm trying to close *.txt file on my pocket PC (htc touch hd) I got a message:
"Saving this document in this format may remove some formatting. Do you want to save as Word instead?"
Is there any registry option how to remove this question?
I really want to use txt files on my pocket pc.
Thanks a lot
Petra
What i do is use [Software] Notepad (Text Editor, WM6.5 Ready) and change the associations to .txt with Total Commander.
Hi,
this is quite a good idea but still it didn't help, because in this case I need to confirm another message when I change something in file:
"Would you like to save chagnes to *.txt?"
"Yes""No""Cancel"
If I change something in word, no such message appears and changes are saved automatically.
thanks
Petra
No such notification when i use the above directions provided
Can open .txt edit and just save as the reason Office asks is due to that it want's to preference .doc over .txt.
Attached installs to Windows & places shortcut in Start Menu/Programs/Office Mobile, you will still have to set the association.
Hey everyone,
I've wondering this for a long time and couldn't find a solution to my problem. I have samsung i780 and have upgraded it to windows mobile 6.1. It comes with the SMS displayed as a chat conversation, which is neat. I want to backup all these conversations, as they are.
When I try most SMS backup software,(like iMobile SMS backup or Godswmobile SMS transfer) they backup all the messages, but they don't save it in a conversation way. They split them into sent or received smses, and its really hard to make sense of things and its tiresome.
Is there any software that can save the entire conversation as they are displayed in wm6.1? (i.e sent-received-sent-received etc)
Or at least someone can think of in this way:
In the conversation window, I can select all, and then copy the messages to Microsoft word or Note. The problem is, it shows very few messages at a time(as the screen is small, so only like 7 or 8 are displayed at a time), and I have to keep clicking on 'Older' to go to the very first sms, which is like a 1000 click before. And its tiresome to copy/paste it in the word, and if one small error, you are pushed back to the very recent sms chat.
Cant I just access the main html/xml file on the mobile where all of this is stored? Anyone knows how to retrieve the file where all your SMS chat/conversation is saved?
Thanks
Okay, I found the software.
Jeyo Software is the one. God, I wish I had known such a software existed before. Its just beautiful.
One more thing, any idea how to restore contacts that were saved as .xml?
Thankx
