Unresponsive LabVIEW PDA GUI on smartphone

I'm all new to the PDA Module so this might be a simple one - however here's the problem:
 
I created a PDA project for Windows Mobile 5.0 in LabVIEW 8.5 on Vista and it successfully runs on my HTC S710 smartphone (runs Windows Mobile 6), however it does not react to any keys on the phone. I know the app is running because its indicators are being updated, however how do I navigate to and press e.g. a button? I tried setting the key focus in code and that resultet in the button going true...(? touchscreen behaviour?) I suspect that the problem is that the code only works on PDAs with touchscreens...but that does not seem right either(?). I haven't had the chance to try it out on a PDA yet, just the smartphone.

Your reasoning sounds OK - LV PDA works the same as LV for the PC - you have to click the controls with the mouse (or, in the case of touch screen, with the stylus). If you don't have a mouse, you can either tab between controls or programmatically change them.

I would check whether the phone buttons work with the Key Down event and use that for navigation and control.

I did try the key down event (forgot to mention it, sorry) and it does not return anything.

Are you using the Get PDA Input functions? Can you post your code or a sample program?



B-)
