Shamil, If I can do it you surely will not have any problems. I have 2 applications working on my TouchPro 2 Smartphone. One I started in VS 2003, moved to 2005 and now have working in 2008. It is my personal PIM, a calendar, Tech-tips , and a list of books, authors I have read. ( I got tired of buying books I had already read. ) Last year I created a 2nd app (Just for Fun) that lists all the cars and motorcycles I have owned. (34 so far that I remember.) It contains 2 pictures for each car, and the data including photo's are stored in Windows Mobile SQL or SQLCE or what ever MS calls it now. Both apps sync through IIS to my Server and SQLServer 2008. The PIM has been working fine for five or six years through various versions of VS and BPCars is still being worked on but has worked for 6 months or so. I don't know that it matters, but the PIM for my PC's is in VB6 and BPCars for the PC is in VB.NET 2008 I doubt that I could help you very much as your programming skill are about 100 times better than mine, but your question was "How well does it work?" and for simple database frontend backend it works great. There are lots of samples etc using pinvoke and other stuff I don't understand on the net, should you desire to directly connect to some of the phone features. Microsoft.public.dotnet.compactframework has some very talented people on there that share their expertise.

Does anybody here use SmartPhones/PDAs with Windows Mobile 6.x? How well they are working for you (MS Windows systems and its applications I mean)? Thank you. -- Shamil -----Original Message----- From: dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Shamil Salakhetdinov Sent: Saturday, April 17, 2010 1:02 PM To: 'Discussion concerning Visual Basic and related programming issues.' Subject: [dba-VB] Programming for Windows Mobile 6.x (WM6.x) using .NETFramework/VS 2008-2010 Hi All -- Do you have any experience for subject? Do you have any ready to use links for samples and other resources for the subject? The subject shouldn't be a "rocket science" I expect - I just need some "jump start" information. Also, do you know what is the best/average mobile phone on the market now to smoothly run WM6? All and any links, hints and tips for the subject would be greatly appreciated here. Thank you. --Shamil _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com
