If it does not belong anywhere else and has to do with Pocket PCs post it here.

are you sure you've lost it? word powerpoint and excel are all programs in the Windows directory; check whether they are there (powerpoint is ppt.exe, word is pword.exe and excel is pxl.exe)

If they're there then you've probably only lost your shortcuts to them; go to File Explorer and copy those files, go to the directory Windows/Start Menu/Programs, and tap-hold and select Paste Shortcut.

I saw those shortcuts on windows directory, but I couldnt paste it on Windows/Start Menu/Programs

I receive this message:
Cannot copy pword
Executable and resource files in ROM cannot be copied.

Please help me

sorry I didn't check back until I was thinking about this today :p

on mine, in the Windows folder there are two "copies" of each program; one is 1mb or larger, the other one is only 11 bytes or so (they're the shortcuts that you were talking about I presume?) Try tap-hold and copy the small version, and copy it in Start Menu (you might have to rename it). If that doesn't work then I guess I could upload those shortcuts, presuming that WM5 is identical for all pdas.

Alternatively, if you have nothing installed, as kareem said, you could do a hard-reset and it should all be there; your error message says its in ROM and therefore would be present after the hard-reset.

Cheers,

Luke

Yeah..you are correct about the shortcuts thing.....but why they were gone from my start menu? I never moved them.

Now I just updated my ROM, so they are back to normal again....but still curious why that thing happened to me...

Sometimes its happens, like when U suddenly do a hard-reset when pWORD itp is thinking.

great to hear its working again :D
on my previous pda (casio) I did a hard-reset and Internet Explorer went into demo mode, showing all its functions; I couldn't actually go to a site >< Then a hard-reset fixed that so yeah. Quite random.
