I just wrote a really simple implementation of this for CE 2002 OS, although I can only test on an emulator. (I don't have the device).

I have only developed it as a "debug" application, and am not even sure how you folks go about "uploading" it to your devices.

I am trying to add the executable as an attachment, however, as a newb to the form, I am not sure if I am following directions on it correctly.

This was coded in C#. I hope that somebody who has an actual device can at least try it and tell me if it works on the device.

Disclaimer: I claim no responsibility for usage of this code and/or file, use at your own risk.

*Edit*I've found a few things that indicate that this is in violation of a patent found here., so I've removed the program I wrote.

Unfortunately it will only work on Windows Smartphone 2003 as I've programmed it in C#.

Should that even matter? I wrote it in C# also, but I wrote it for Windows CE 2002, so it should work on that OS, regardless of what the device is.

Thanks for this. Works a treat on the C550 (upper left window, but looks/works fine).

Hi All,

I know this is resurrecting a dead thread but I wanted to let you all know that the forumla currently used on here is for the USA Weight Watchers, not the UK one.

The UK formula only uses Saturated Fat and Calories - but is slightly different figures from the US.

I knocked up a quick ASP script on a webpage for my own personal use. The code for this is:
<%
If request.form("Calories") <> "" then
' We have data so work out points
dblPoints = Request.Form("Calories") * 0.014285
dblPoints = dblPoints + (Request.Form("SatFat") * 0.25)

Response.Write ("For an item with " & Request.Form("Calories") & " calories and " & Request.Form("SatFat") & " saturate fat there will be " & dblPoints & " points.<br /><br />")
%>

<title>Points Calculator</title>
<form name="myform" action="<%=REQUEST.SERVERVARIABLES("SCRIPT_NAME")%>" method="post">
Calories: <input type="text" name="Calories"> <br />
Saturated Fat: <input type="text" name="SatFat"> <br />
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">

</form>

<%

Else
' Show the form
%>
<html>
<title>Points Calculator</title>
<form name="myform" action="<%=REQUEST.SERVERVARIABLES("SCRIPT_NAME")%>" method="post">
Calories: <input type="text" name="Calories"> <br />
Saturated Fat: <input type="text" name="SatFat"> <br />
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">

</form>
</html>
<%
End If
%>

Just a quick warning to anyone using this, don't make it publically available. I think that it's fine for personal use but all the weight watchers formulas are covered by a patent and I'd hate for anyone to get sued.

I did intend for the Points to be displayed using a decimal point if necessary but I forgot, whoops.

Never mind, here's the modified edition with decimal points and an icon.

I've made a CAB installer using the inf file beersoft kindly provided.

Hey! Thanks for creating the CAB & start menu item. You've made my day!
