• .NET Development Sending out messages from a .net app to Pda's - advice

  hi all, im researching some methods to distribute jobs to a small army of people across Canada and was wondering if anyone had some tips to help me along. My main question is, how (and what software / hardware) would i need to equip every person with a PDA and be able to send out messages (via Email i suppose) to the PDA's with scheduled jobs the people have to go on.

AS long as its on and they have some sort of wireless connection it should send the message an ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System looking for web test

• Visual Basic Can i sell what i make

  can i sell what i make with visual basic 2005 beta 2 App will not be time restricted but the IDE will stop working I think. Also, the license says that the end user has to obtain the target from Microsoft which means that the .NET Framework Beta 2 may expire which means that your app also does not work. A good idea would be to change the date on ur machine to May 1th 2006 and see what happens - that will eliminate all questions :) In case you do not want to try on ur dev machine, install Virtual PC and try on that: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtualpc/default.mspx Regards, Vikram ...Show All
