Say that I have a program on a PC that packs files together. This file format store the offset to each file in the packed with in the package. Then I transfer the file over to a PocketPC. If I try to unpack these files in the PocketPC will the offsets to these files that I have saved, will these offset still be valid I am asking because when you copy a file with ActiveSync the file is transfered and "Converted" what exactly does that convertion entail
Thanks

If u transfer packed file using ActiveSync chances are u might loose offset. Solution to this is making use of RAPI API's to transfer ur newly created packed file onto PocketPC. Using RAPI u r sure ur offset is not corrupted and unpack the file onto device successfully. Hope this helps u.

This "conversion" is only applicable to some files like BMP or DOC.
AS won't convert "unfamiliar" files, but that can be controlled:
