Does such a program exist?

I have serched high and low. I was wondering if there was anyway to get Microsoft Access onto my Fuze. I have a biz that runs on Access, it would be helpful if i could have it with me at all times instead of having to carry a laptop everywhere i go.

I don't think such a program exists. I'm assuming that your Access stuff is a full application with forms, etc? You can probably use something like this --> http://www.handster.com/programs.php?id=2906&for=Pocket PC mdb to update the tables, but I can't see it running reports, etc.
If you have a decent data plan, then one option is to run Remote Desktop to a PC back at base running the Access Application. I've got a Virtual Machine on my server which I can access from my Touch Pro. I can run any app I want on there, and as long as I don't try to do anything stupid (like play a video), then it works fine. This is the only way I could see your Access application working on your TP.
Cheers,
Steve.

I believe the client is built into the Fuze. If you have a custom ROM, just do a search. Several threads have the cab to install it on the Fuze. It has also been built into Windows since at least XP. You have to be a local admin or in the remote users group to Remote Desktop or RDP to your desktop.

Remote Apps on TP

Hi All,
I wanted to share with you something that I think could develop into something quite useful (and cool ). I have successfully managed to launch remote applications from my Linux server onto my TP (similar to Citrix). For those that might be somewhat skeptical I've attached a screenshot below. And yes, your eyes do not deceive you – it most certainly is Word 2007 running! But before everyone starts jumping up and down with excitement, it's not an TP application that I've developed – more proof of concept.
If people are interested in trying this out themselves please let me know and I'll put up some instructions. Just a wording of warning though, this is a little fiddly and requires the user to use CLI via Executah and also a Linux PC (not sure how to achieve this with a Windows PC).
Also, if there are any Xterm/XServer/WebOS Developer experts for the TP here that can help me, please come forward as I would like to push this to be more GUI based so I could really use some help.
Thank you.

How does this compare to splashtop remote?

Wow very neat!
Don't run Linux so not for me but i'd find this useful if someone knew a way to do this via windows?

it's not as advance as splashtop. It's merely just a remote application running on a linux server. The example I posted was of word running via wine on my ubuntu server. However, I've managed to get rdesktop installed on the touchpad which means there is a possibility of running a windows application. I will try this out and see if it works.
I will report back as soon as I have some info. I post a screenshot of a windows app running, asumming I can get one to run.

Need help for merging python programs

I was doing my first raspberry pi electronic project. I choosed the adafruits Google docs logging project for a start. The project was a success and I obtained a complete output. My problem is , when I looked into the python program provided by adafruit (got it from github) it is calling other small programs. So I looked one of the called programs and it again calls other program.
I want to write a complete program that includes all the necessary things ie a stand alone version.
I want to write it in python 2. Also use a gpio pin 5. My model of pi is raspberry pi 2 model b.
I don't know whether I can include driver in my program. But if it is possible , I also want to include the driver too, please help me.

Raspberry Pi for single purpose without display

I love raspberry pi and I made many programs in Python. One of them is a cool GPIO robot controlling program. But I want to use my pi without any display and I also want my pi to run that specific program when it is powered.
I mean without booting all that Raspbian os and all that.
Is that possible.
If yes then please let me know
Thanks.

Hi! Yes, you could burn the lite version of raspbian on your sdcard. The lite version just has the basic stuff without "fancy" extras! Once booted up, write or copy your script to your pi, to a location you remember and start it at boot with the correct entry in the rc.local file!
Example line: python /home/pi/example_dir/YOUR_SCRIPT.py
I hope i could help!
