thanks!!, the link is for the redistributable for the pocketpc, although i cannot understand why it doesn't work with VS2005 installed, did you tried downloading the SDK
Correct, Pocket PC 2003 is based on Windows CE 4.2. However, they are not the same. Think about generic CE as "Do It Yourself" OS kit which could be very close to Pocket PC or very far from it (say, it can have no video or any input devices). While NETCF V2 might run in some cases on generic CE 4.2, this is not tested and unsupported.< xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
It does work with VS 2005. Go to ARP, choose NETCF V2, go to "Modify" and add deployment feature (you need AS installed). This is, however, unnecessary as VS 2005 will deploy NETCF anyway.< xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
1. They both can be on the same PC. 2. No, it does nothing. To develop for NETCF V2, you need VS 2005 (beta 2). You can run NETCF V1 applications against NETCF V2 with proper configuration file, but you can not debug with VS 2003.
Please see this for details on how to run V1 app on V2:
thanks, well, i try to uninstalled from 'Control Panel', however, in my ppc, .net cf 2.0 still exist I use this way to check: http://msmobiles.com/users/1/archives/2005.4.20_19046/netcf2.gif does it have any affects when I using vs.2003 to write code because I think I am just gonna use cf 1.1 at the moment as I don't have vs.2005...
Sure why, not You can uninstall it should you have any problems.
Hi, I got 2 more questions, sorry, can you have a look:
1. I have installed '.NET Compact Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package Beta 2' on my ppc, however, when I try to install the sdk, it give me a message said I need to install .net frame work 2.0, does that mean I need to uninstalled frame work 1.1 or they both can exist on the same pc
2. now my ppc is running .net cf 2.0, but in my vs.2003, I still using .net cf 1.1 to develop application, so does the .net cf 2.0 do anything actually
1. No, you can not develop for CF V2 in VS 2003, you need VS 2005 or SDK (free, but no IDE). You can also run existing V1 applications on NETCF V2 to enjoy performance improvements of NETCF V2. 2. Yes, NETCF V2 officially supported on PPC 2003 (but not CE 4.2 or SP 2003). 3. DX3D is not supported on PPC 2003. But you sure can draw 3D graphics on anything as long as you can set pixels. You just have to do all the rendering yourself. Some games in the 80s managed to draw 3D models in real time on 4MHz Z80 CPUs with 48K RAM, you can do it too.

did you try to install this file:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/e/b/9eb3389c-effe-4237-81d7-21510729efff/NETCFSetupv2.msi
That does not work if VS2005 is installed on your pc. I would be interessted in installing cf 2 if VS2005 Beta 2 is installed on my pc.
