I learned that Beta 1 does not support ArcPad 7 when I added the Get data and export and import commands to a custome toolbar. The command "Get data for ArcPad 7" crashes Beta 1; the other commands may or may not work. But no matter. The information in this forum that Beta 1 does not support ArcPad explains that.
The information from Damian that the toolbar will be part of the ArcPad installation causes me to ask if in 9.4 Desktop, the ArcPad 7 commands can be added by custom toolbar, as I described above?
Due to a substantial investment in GPS equipment, I was not planning to migrate to ArcPad 8 at this time, until upgrades to that equipment becomes necessary. So installation of the toolbar by ArcPad would not be part of the 9.4 installation at the time I would install it. However, adding ArcPad 7 as a custom toolbar will be satisfactory.
I will be happy to try ArcPad 7 when the Beta 2 is available.
