file transfer from pda via bluetooth?

hallo,
I want to transfer file from PDA to desktop computer via Bluetooth in Labview 7.1.. I have seen an example Advanced Bluetooth Client.vi and I saw that it has this possibility.. unfortunately, I can't perform this action at all. Sending data via Bluetooth serial port is working perfect.. But, on this computer I can't perform normal  file transfer without Labview.. What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

You should be able to implement a custom file transfer service based on the Advanced Bluetooth example VI by creating a service that follows the same structure as the other services in the Server VI of that example.  That is, create a service, have a while loop that waits on a listener for that service, when a listener is found, take the file you want to transfer and flatten it to a binary string and send it using the Bluetooth VI's.  You can then have the received file be stored in whatever location you specify on the receiving end by using the File IO VI's. 
Cheers,
