Newbie :: Urgent Question

I'm totally new in Visual Studio.
Currently, I'm trying to install free sample code from msdn, it's Northwind Pocket Inventory - Logistics for Windows Mobile 2003-Based Pocket PC.
After I set all the db and other, finally I can run the program in an IPaq except the web service one. I'm rather confused why the web service doesn't work, because I've tried to run it in desktop and it goes well. Is IPaq doesn't support web service or maybe there is another reason about that I really hope someone could give me some solutions.
The second thing to ask is that the same program I tried in emulator but it doesn't work at all, the message is something like System.NullException
Please give me some advice to solve them.
Thanks for your attention.

I've already succeed to connect Emulator with the Active Sync, but got some problems again. I couldn't access database from my emulator, and it just prompt me with could not connect to remote server. Does it mean that the emulator just didn't connect to my computer even though that it has been synchronized with an active sync Could somebody give me some explanations about accessing web service with an emulator. I'm doing my student projects currently, so have to finish it before deadline. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Thanks Carl for your reply..
I've read your blog already but I just can't find DMA choices in the Activesync configuration. I'm using the ActiveSync 4.1, I think that is the latest one, isn't it
And another problem is my emulator couldn't access local web site from my server too, I think because I haven't establish a connection between my computer and the emulator right
Have you tried the sample before It really makes me feel confused.
Please help me coz I really want to learn implementing it in the emulator. Thanks a lot

Are you using your device through ActiveSync Have you tried accessing your database from another desktop, other than the server Can you device access webpages

You probably are having connectivity issues when accessing the database from the emulator. I wrote a blog entry on how to connect the emulator via ActiveSync that you can find at:

This may happen if you uninstall ActiveSync then re-install. The fix is easy – go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Device Emulator\1.0 and run “
“regsvr32 SerDMAAsPlugin.dll”.
