reg hack to change contacts in phone?

[macguffin]

Hi does anyone know of a registry hack to change the left soft 'contacts' button in the phone app. I'd like to change it so it doesnt open the default contacts app but a contacts program of my choosing.

Many thanks.

you can try the attached .txt document, plus a few more tweaks you may be interested, as well.
Please read very carefully and be cautious not to mess up your ppc.

What you want is called SoftKey Applet, filename is: SoftKeyAppletEx.cpl ;)

Or depending on what you want to do you can download Taskmanager v2.7. Kill poutlook.exe(windows folder) and replace it with whatever .exe you want controlled by that softkey. Just rename the exe you want to poutlook. If it still gives you a read-only error kill cprog.exe also and just repeat the above steps.
