Does anyone know how to gets tables from an iPAQ using ASP.Net? I have an existing GUI program that was developed in C# that creates a temp Access MDB then retrieves data from a Pocket PC (PPC/ iPAQ) and inserts the data into the mdb. It uses some Active Sync dlls called DEVICETODESKTOP and DESKTOPTODEVICE. THe C# program then sends new data to a SQL BE and retreives some data back to the mdb, then finally sends the data back to the PPC. This program has worked great for a couple of years and has recently been awarded to some new distributors who we do not want access out VPN. My employer want me to "webify" this program and create it in ASP.Net. I was able to import the C# classes into the ASP.Net project, but the API call class does not compile. I believe this is due to the fact that the IIS server does not see the iPAQ. My question is, does anyone know of a way to ASP.Net to read the tables from the PPC either into temp Access mdbs or into an XML file? I'm willing to work in either VB.Net or C# dialect of ASP.Net Someone told me that I would probably have to create an active X control to do this task, which I dont know how to do either :( Does anyone have any ideas? TIA, David
