I've only been able to manage that by using calls to the windows APIs which only work on some PDAs (on my development Dell X51V it works, on some Symbols it doesn't. I'm not sure why - no exception or anything, just the time doesn't change)
Hope that helps, but maybe someone knows a C# way of doing that.

I'm looking for someone or good resources to write my own application for the treo 600 and I need help getting started. I'm a C# programmer and have no experience with mobile devices.
Any advice will be helpful.

Hello,
I am creating a SIP client on my PDA, so the interface looks like a soft phone. However, I have just used the tools out of the tool box.
When I look at the other interfaces on other soft phones you can download, they have very nice skins (sjPhone, kapanga).
I am wondering is it possible to add controls that look like some of the SIP phones that you can download. These phones look like real phone.
Many thanks for any advice,
Steve

I am new to Mobile development. Now that that disclaimer is out of the way. I have a project that consists of a bar code device with windows CE on it. The client want a inventor software.
i am trying to write a program using .net compact framework VB.net. I am trying to write a program (for the device) that will connect to a sql database on the desktop. I have created a connection and dataset using the data source wizard. I am able to test it buy right clicking on data Adapter and view data and it successfully runs the fill query to get data.
But, when I try to fill the dataset in my code I get this message.
Specified SQL Server not found: LIT3\SQLEXPRESS
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Our goal is to send data back to desktop over RF realtime. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi Himanshu,
Getting the owner information is not a problem, we can get it, if the user has entered the information in the "owner information".
How can we access the phone number from the smartphone if the user hasn't entered the information?
Thanks & Regards

Hi..
Is there any way that I can detect an available wireless connection and connect to it with c# .NET CF?
And are there any way I can tell my device to connect to an availble network, if the network code is typed in windows without the users notice?
My problem is that I want my device to reconnect automatically when an available connection is detected. If my device has been shut down for a couple of hours or have been without connection, I have to manually reconnect to the internet, which is not possible with my program, because it cannot be closed for security reasons..
Greetings from Haolan

Hello,
I am modifing an existing Win32 smart device VS 2005 using WM5 SDK. I am coming from C# smart devices. So have very limited experience in win32 smart device development.
Does anyone know how to create a new window and set this as the start-up window.
Anyone one has any links to add forms and controls that would be a good start. In C# this was easy as its all drag and drop.
Many thanks for any suggestions,
Steve

I am working on my first pocket pc project. I need some help. We want to create a inventory system. We would like the pocket pc to get and update data via rf to the desktop PC and update an Access database. Does anyone have any suggestion on how this can work. So far I have found out these things:
-Pocket PC can not connect to server and update Access on PC.
-Pocket PC can have Pocket Access on it, but how would it update Access on PC? ActiveSync?
-SQL Server CE can be used but will that make it harder to retrieve and update data from Access on Desktop?
Can anyone give me some suggestions on the easiest way to gather info from desktop Access database and load in on Pocket PC and then turn around and update from the pocket PC to the Access data base on desktop via RF all in realtime.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure what your situation or requirements are, but why don't you use SQL Server CE on the mobile device, and then use SQLExpress(free) on the PC. It may take some re-writing of code, but it will be much better in the long run. Have you considered that?
I'm going to become rich when I create a device that allows me to punch people in the face over the internet.

Yes, that is a consideration. The only trip-up is the client has special forms in Access that they use and we don't know if we can duplicate. So, I was would this still work if they still wanted their Access database?

There is tons of "sample code" on the net. Why don't you search for it yourself, instead of asking others to do it.

Oh. Well, I haven't tried doing any of the stuff you listed in the .NET CF with Access. So, I can't say whether or not the items you listed are totally true. However, I will assume they are. If the PC with the Access tables is on the same network as your Pocket PC when committing to that Access "database," you can create a share on the folder that the file is in, and give full read/write permissions on the folder, and the file.
Then, ADO.NET still works in the CF, you can use an OleConnection, and OleCommands to do reads and writes to that file. Are you using the office interop to do your access work, or are you using OLE? I don't even know if the office interop is CF compatible.
I'm not sure if I helped at all, or answered any questions. However, if you have any more, please feel free to ask here, and I'll do the best I can at answering, and giving advice.

Hi,
I've installed both the Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard and Professional SDKs with VS2008 on my laptop. I'm trying to run the Cellular Emulator tool, but every time I try I get the error "COM7 is in use, please verify".
I used the Device Manager to see what ports are in use and it only lists COM1, my serial port. When I go to it's properties and click on the Port Settings tab, then the Advanced... button there is a place where I can pick what com port to use. This list shows that com ports 3-17 are all in use, but I have no idea by what.
I've tried looking this up on the internet and found a lot of people with a similar problem (with a different com port), but no real solution. This forum[^] says that Windows Mobile 6 uses 14 com ports for device emulation. That's fine, but then why can't I use COM7 if it's already reserved?
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I don't have bluetooth software installed.
Thank you,
Brad
