Extracting Pocket Outlook recordings

I found this and it works great for me using Audacity.

(1) Copy .pwi (Note) file to PC

(2) Open Audacity

(3) Get the Note audio into Audacity by:

Project menu
Import as raw data

(4) Select all of the audio by clicking below its file name at left of the graphic of the file

(5) Click on dropdown menu (arrow next to file name)

Set Rate to 11025 Hz

(6) Convert to WAV by:

File menu
Export as wav

Vista copying finally got alot better

Microsoft should have done this a long, long time ago, from the beginning. There was many, many times with previous versions of Windows when I was copying or moving a big folder to another drive or subfolder and one file had a problem and it would error and stop in the middle and there was no way to know what file caused it or even what files were copied and not copied. In Vista you have the option to skip the file and keep copying or moving the rest of the files.

Another thing I like is the third option given when the possibility of overwriting a file(s). You have always had the options to overwrite the file or cancel it, but now you have the option of copying it but it adds a (2) to the file so you can keep successive versions of files if you need to.
