Well, actually now that I look I have 1.05, so I don't think 1.01 is the latest. In the upper right on the AR software window, there should be an icon that when you mouse over you can use to do a "software upgrade".
Like I said, there are different ways to do this. With your current version of software, the easiest way is probably this:
1. Copy the following into a text editor:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<codelist>
<name>POKESAV</name>
<game>
<name>Pokemon Pearl (USA)</name>
<gameid>APAE 31D0AFDE</gameid>
<cheat>
<name>kalisto</name>
<codes>
[paste your cheat code here]
</codes>
</cheat>
</game>
</codelist>
2. Replace the middle bit with your code and save the file as an .xml file named something you can remember put somewhere you can find it.
3. Go find the file and drag it onto the left hand "nintendo ds" panel in the action replay software. Say yes and let it do all its overwriting stuff. It will wipe out what is already there but it doesn't matter becasue you can just reload and update it to get it back.
4. You have to have had the AR in the fired up DS to do step 3. You have that part figured out, correct?
5. When you drag the xml file over it will update. The DS screen will say "writing" and "deleting" etc, along with some big numbers. You're done from the software end. Quit the AR software.
6. Go to the DS. Hit the house to go back a screen. Hit the wrench and then hit the disc and that will let you save the changes to the AR device. That brings you back where it says "Insert game cart". Pop out the AR device. Pop in your game. Hit the asterisk and see the top screen say <add new code>. Select "kalisto" or whatever you called it if you changed that. It may prompt you to add a new game the first time you do this. Do that if you need to. Select your game and the code to add in to the game. Pop out the game and pop the AR device back in. It says saving changes and puts a little code on the bottom left which I find oddly reassuring. I always do the wrench and disc save as well here for insurance even though I may not need to. Switch the AR for the game again. Hit the star and the Pokesav generated should already be checked. Hit start and get the game going. This is a lot easier then it sounds and will become just a quick shuffle once you do it a few times.
7. Get in game. You have to hit the L and R buttons to have the code take effect. That means you hold down the button labeled L and R on the outside of the DS (under the flipped up top and on the bottom part) together at the same time for a few seconds to turn on whatever code you loaded from the AR device. These are also called the shoulder buttons. Not the x shaped direction thing and the a-b-x-y buttons. Save your game.
Let me know if I missed something or glossed over something you don't get, or if you flat can't get it to work.
If you upgrade your software, you can use the "add new cheat" thing which might be easier. Try it this way first and we'll do the other if you can't get this to go.
