Is there a way to get Pocket Informant 5 to launch on startup?

Hi
You can put a shortcut in the Startup folder, but DeJe (of PIToday fame) has created a program which will launch PI on start up then minimize it. It's here http://www.jenett-online.de/PIToday/...ad/StartPI.exe

Do I copy the .exe in the startup folder on the PPC? I tried running it on my laptop and it said it wasn't a valid win32 app.

Speaking of Deje,
I've started using his today screen plugin. great to have my tasks on the today screen
Bk, did the Start PI work for you? It has worked for me in the past...just haven't loaded it with the latest PI

Yes - then you need to do a Soft Reset.

Yes Brad, the latest version was introduced to work with PI5.

Yup..that did it....I had Space Reclaimer running on startup (which closes all applicaitons)....I disabled that and PI starts up on the reset and minimizes it.
Thanks!
