Can you open a new sms from desk?

Well, you can find the SMS folder in FileManager and shortcut it to the desk lor..

Do you mean the ability to create new SMSes from Desk? This is possible using Active Desk.

I've tried active desk, and I love it to bots but it hogs so much memory that I can't play bounce! I've had to revert back to the original Desk.

I've can't find the sms edior using file exploerer though, does anyone know where it is?

Its in the ROM on the Z drive. There is a hidden key sequence in File Manager to show this drive - but I can'r remember what it is!!

Try using Runner and the MsgSmsEditor.app on the Z drive (I would but Runner keeps coming up with a LogCli (13) error and I don't know why).

Just running the MsgSmsEditor.app doesn't start the application, so I guess it's looking for a parameter of some sort.

To open the ROM Zdrive.
first press OFFICE then FILE-MANAGER then you type ++sp you see upper right in green ++sp.
go to MENU then TOOLS then SETTINGS
and open both to YES.
Close FILE-MANGER and reopen it

Thanks,

I'd already accessed the rom, i just can't find a way to open the sms editor from it yet. Maybe runner would work but it seems i'm not the only one who can't get it to start.
