Pocket PC 2002 icons

[suzetter]

I am writing a user manual for a specific software my company is using for data collection. The software has a Pocket PC component. We are using the Symbol PDT 8100 Pocket PC 2002 handheld. Unlike an iPac, you cannot display the screen of the PDT on your laptop etc. And so capturing screens for visualization in the manual is impossible.

In addition to this, the PDT is a black and white screen version and you can just imagine how diificult it is to even take a picture of the screen with a digital camera (which by the way I have already tried). So my only other option is to actually compose the screens using a graphics program, which I have already started doing. Now the Pocket PC 2002 screens are very simple except for the icons. You see if I want to truly represent the screens as they appear on the handheld, I need to use the exact icons when I am drawing the screens. But alas, I have searched and searched and searched for these icons and I can't find them anywhere. I can't even find the windows flag icon or the volume icon and I can go on and on...

Can anyone tell me where I can find Pocket PC 2002 icons so that I can draw my own screens for the user manual?

If you have Visual Studio.Net 2003, it has a Pocket PC Emulator 2002 that runs on your computer.

Why not use that and take screenshots? You use your mouse to control it.

I'm not sure of which versions of Visual Studio have this emulator...

Attached is a screenshot. Is this what you want?

Does your PocketPC device connect to a computer through ActiveSync? If so, you can use Microsoft's Remote Display Control, which allows you to control your PocketPC through the USB/Serial cable or Network if it has network access. I think this should work for you, all you have to do is install it (really small), then run the PC part (Remote Display Control Host), then launch the PPC part and use the default connection.

:) No problem, I use it for setting up my Pocket PC if I ever have to hard-reset it ;)
