You will see the ArcPad splash screen briefly, and ArcPad will open with the
Open Map dialog box.
Note
If this is the first time you are opening ArcPad since
installing, you will see a message advising you as such, and that a new
toolbar file has been created. After clicking OK, you will then be prompted
for your registration number. If you do not have a registration number, you
can click OK, and continue using ArcPad in evaluation mode. Evaluation mode
allows you to use all ArcPad functionality for 20 minutes.
