rapi.dll problem in windows 7 - C#

Question

hi

i work with OpenNETCF.Desktop.Communication.dll (RAPI) to connect

between PC and Windows mobile in my C# program.

in Windows xp it work's excellent, but in windows 7 i get this error:

Unable to load DLL 'rapi.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

in windows xp i install ActiveSync but in windows 7 i know that he is build in

what can be the problem ?

Answer 1

To debug DLL problems, use Dependency Walker (depends.exe). It can do both static and dynamic analysis of DLL dependencies.

Answer 2

Maybe this is a stupid answer, but did you install WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center) on your Win7 PC? WMDC is the equivalent of ActiveSync on WinXP, and it will install the RAPI.DLL file.
