    - Using Opennet's Listbox ex for the first time..2 questions Can anyone tell me how you can copy the selected item's text to a variable? It comes out blank everytime I use. pseudocode example: listbox5 = listboxex variablename = listbox5.text variablename will = "" even if there is an item selected. Also, it's cool that you can have different colors for the different rows. How do you change the colors? Thanks! Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59239

    - trouble with events and webbrowser control Hi! I'm having trouble with the new webbrowser control. I'd like to use the navigating_event to make some decisions. I tried to use the 'cancel' property but nothing happens. (look here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5z79szk4) If I simply try: private void webBrowser1_Navigating(object sender, WebBrowserNavigatingEventArgs e) { e.Cancel = true; } Nothing happens. The page is just loaded. Shouldn't this property prevent that behavior? Any hints? THX! Tobias Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59234

    - any reason for VS2005 Pro for cf development? I am trying to decide whether I need VS2005 Pro or if Standard is sufficient. It will be used SOLEY for Mobile Device development to interface with a desktop app (VB6 + Access) just looking at Microsoft's comparison chart: http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2005/productinfo/productline/default.aspx The main differences that jump out as possibly relevant are 1. User experience (streamlined vs full) 2. Deployment tools (click once vs yes) 3. remote debugging (I can still debug on a PPC without this, correct?) I realize this could be asked in the visual studio group, but it seems like a higher concentration of .NETcf experts here who might be able to answer these questions and point out anything I missed ;-) Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59232

    - Problems with a DLL Hi, I've written a DLL that internally calls another DLL. The problem is that if I call my DLL from a C++ program, it works fine, but if I call it from a .NETCF program, it raises an exception and the exception dialog is shown. If I press on the Details button, the application hangs and I must close it from the 'Running programs' list. Any idea why this happens?? Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59226

    - Active Sync loses connection Help! I've asked this before but never got a reply, i'm hoping somebody out there might know the answer this time around. Basically, if i leave my PDA (Qtec 2020) in the cradle for say 3 hours, after that period it still looks like it's connected (still green icon) however when you try and explore it the folder view is just blank. You have to take it out and put it back in for it to work again. This problem doesn't help my application which is continually polling for updates on the internet connection.

    - VB.NET vs. C# arithmetics :> Hello, I have noticed strange behaviour. I have .NET CF project written partly in VB, there comes also a set of function written in C#. I have 2 functions for counting PIN number - both based on the same algorithm - and results are different. Is there a different pattern in rounding numbers in VB and C#? Here comes the code: public static int getPIN(long serialNo) { int myPIN, byteA, byteB, byteC; long myLongValue; if (serialNo > 999999) { myPIN = 0; } else { byteA = System.Convert.ToInt32((((serialNo / 1000) % 10) * 10) + ((serialNo / 10000) % 10)); byteB = System.Convert.ToInt32((((serialNo / 100000) % 10) * 10) + ((serialNo / 10) % 10)); byteC = System.Convert.ToInt32(((serialNo % 10) * 10) + ((serialNo / 100) % 10)); myLongValue = (byteA * byteA) + (byteB * byteB) + (byteC * byteC); myPIN = System.Convert.ToInt32(myLongValue % 10000); if (myPIN == 0) myPIN = 4646; } return myPIN; } Public Shared Function getPIN(ByVal SerialNo As Long) As Integer Dim myPIN, byteA, byteB, byteC As Integer Dim myLongValue As Long If SerialNo > 999999 Then myPIN = 0 Else byteA = System.Convert.ToInt32((((SerialNo / 1000) Mod 10) * 10) + ((SerialNo / 10000) Mod 10)) byteB = System.Convert.ToInt32((((SerialNo / 100000) Mod 10) * 10) + ((SerialNo / 10) Mod 10)) byteC = System.Convert.ToInt32(((SerialNo Mod 10) * 10) + ((SerialNo / 100) Mod 10)) myLongValue = (byteA * byteA) + (byteB * byteB) + (byteC * byteC) myPIN = System.Convert.ToInt32(myLongValue Mod 10000) If myPIN = 0 Then myPIN = 4646 End If End If Return myPIN End Function Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59223

    - problem running app on windows mobile 2003 second edition device I have an application I wrote that works fine on my windows mobile 2003 device. I just bouth a new device that has windows mobile 2003 second edition. When I debug the app through VS 2003 on the device it works fine. However as soon as I try to run the app on device after deploying through vs 2003 or installing it with a cab file it doesn't work right. The program will start fine put when I do certain things it white screens and says I need to install a newer version of the compact framework on the device. Both handhelds are running the same version of the CF. Any ideas what is going on? Thanks Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59222

    - Saving Text/HTML/RTF from clipboard as an image? Hi Guys, I was hoping you can help me! I am writing an app that handles faxes and one of the options is to add additional images to a fax. Now, I have a picturebox that has a context menu which the users would click to paste their images/text/rtf/html from the clipboard then this would be added to the current fax. I have it working fine with an image BUT how would i do it so if the thing they are wanting to paste is HTML or RTF? I was thinking that you would need to turn the HTML or RTF into an image then save it as the next frame in the fax .tiff file? I did try put in a richtextbox but theres not really anyway i could save that to the fax? I hope some one know what to do, this has been driving me mad for a few days!!

    - HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse fails only on some servers Hi, PDA is a Dell Axim X30 running Mobile 2003 SE. I'm really desperate for some help. I've been trying to figure this out for ages. After much debugging, I have figured out that my code will download http://www.cnn.com/index.html just fine but fails for http://www.<myserver>.com/index.html. There is definitely an index.html on my server. The results are 100% reliable, works everytime for CNN, fails everytime for my server. PDA is connected to my desktop via AS3.8, then to a WAP via Ethernet. Running the same code on the desktop works just fine everytime for both servers. Any ideas?

    - 1. An error occurred saving the project user options. 2. Form cannot be displayed I am developing an Pocket PC application using VS .Net 2003. And I frequently get the following error when I click the "Save All" button in the Visual Studio. Can anybody help? error message: an error occurred saving the project user options file 'projname.vbproj.user' Then I click "OK" to the above message box. I attempts to save the file but it says the file already exists. So, I just choose the option to over write it. It happens again and again for the same project/solution. Another problem I has in the same project/solution is: the "form1.vb (design)" cannot be displayed in the Visual Studio IDE. (i.e. I cannot see the grey color form and all the controls in the form such as text boxes). The way I fix this problem is to: 1. Insert a new form 2. Then delete this new form 3. Automatically, the form can then be displayed. I am not too sure whether the 2 problems are related. Thanks. Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59212

    - Proxy settings My Work Network I have 2 questions but a little background to my problem. We have a client who creates a VPN when we connect to their APN over GPRS. The issue is when they want to update virus definitions or browse the internet they cant as there is no Proxy settings for My ISP in the connections manager and therefor the firewall does not let the traffic out (or even authenticate within the network). I have created the connection in My Work Network with the proxy details and this seems to work fine. I am not sure why it doesnt exist in My ISP as surely people would want a proxy option? So Q1: Is it possible to use a proxy server when the connection is created in My ISP? Q2: If so or I have to move my connection to My Work Network how would I a) Default CE to use My Work Network and not My ISP with the CF? (we would toggle this with our custom installer) b) Create the proxy settings (using installer as well). I am willing to do whatever it takes if this includes hacking the registry.. thanks Rob Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59210

    - Process.Start on CE.NET with built-in DOS commands This seems like it should be simple but is eluding me at the moment: I'd like to use code to execute several built-in DOS commands on CE.NET 4.2; I can use Process.Start to run any EXE or cab file I've created but not built-in commands like mkdir, del, etc. ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("mkdir", "/storage card/foo"); startInfo.UseShellExecute = false; Process proc = Process.Start( startInfo ); System.IntPtr handle = proc.Handle; proc.WaitForExit(); int code = proc.ExitCode; proc.ExitCode throws an InvalidOperationException.

    - Calling WinAPI Functions from .NET Are there any concise rules about when you need to marshal data to WinAPI calls, and when you don't? It appears that most times you can call WinAPI calls directly from .NET without any preparation. For example Declare Function OpenPrinter Lib "winspool.drv" Alias "OpenPrinterA" (ByVal pPrinterName As String, ByVal phPrinter As Integer, <MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Struct)> ByRef pDefault As PRINTER_DEFAULTS) As Integer Dim tmpHandle As Int32 Dim msDeviceName as String = "MyPrinter" OpenPrinter(msDeviceName, tmpHandle, 0) However, some functions appear to require all kinds of fancy manipulation before you get to call them--particularly ones which require structures or arrays. (See http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/printwatchvbnet.asp). Why isn't .NET smart enough to handle this "under the covers", the way that VB6 is?

    - Handheld device --> Does someone have a short code example ?? Hi, A customer requested to permanently activate the red Function key on a HHP Dolphin 9550. This key behaves like a SHIFT key for function keys. They have to make a lot of key entries: RED KEY - F1 RED KEY - F2 RED KEY - F3 ... and so on... It would be very desirable if the RED KEY could be permanently 'pressed', but it also has to be possible to deactivate ('unpress') the RED KEY. Does anybody know how to do this using VB.NET?

    - More Keyboard hooking question: modifying processed keys another question related to key handling...if i am using a dll hook (LowLevelKeyboardProc) to recieve WM_KEYDOWN messages in my managed code, is it possible to change the virtual keycode and have it be effected when CallNextHookEx in the dll is called? What i have been able to do so far is change data in the KBDLLHOOKSTRUCT in my managed code, and see that those changes do persist back to the dll code. But unfortunately, when the changes do not affect what is outputed to the window/control. //Here is a snippet of the C# code protected override void WndProc( ref Message msg ) { base.WndProc( ref msg ); switch (msg.WParam.ToInt32( ) ) { case ( int ) API.WM_KEYDOWN: API.KeybdStruct kbStruct = getKeyStruct( msg.LParam ); kbStruct.vkCode = 65; <--test: change what ever comes in to an 'A' kbStruct.scanCode = 0; System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.StructureToPtr( kbStruct, msg.LParam, false ); break; } } //Snippet from dll PHONEHELPER_DLL_API LRESULT CALLBACK keyboardHookProc( int ncode,WPARAM wparam,LPARAM lparam ) { if ( ncode == HC_ACTION ) { if( wparam == WM_KEYDOWN ) { SendMessage( _messageWindow, ncode, wparam, lparam ); } } KBDLLHOOKSTRUCT *kbs = ( KBDLLHOOKSTRUCT* ) lparam; debug( kbs->vkCode ); <--here any changes made to kbdllhookstruct from the C# managed code is shown. this works. return ( CallNextHookEx( _keyboardHook, ncode, wparam,lparam ) ); <--when this is called however, still old char is displayed } WHy am i asking? i'd like to implement a means of changing lower case characters to upper case by double tapping on a key. I can use registerhotkey, but i have found that it's easy for other apps to unregister hotkeys and would like to avoid that possibility. Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59179

    - Event handling problem (SMS) Hi Based on the "Receiving SMS sample" available in the SDK I built a class that listens for messages and raises an event when a suitable SMS is available. This event is then handled in a form (the form instantiates the class "WithEvents" and declares a sub to handle the event with the "Handles" keyword). I get SMS on the form and access their text without any problem; the event works fine. But I'm having trouble calling other subs or functions from within the event handling routine. That is, if all the code is contained in the event handling routine, the code works fine; if the event handler calls other subs or functions with the same code then the control is transferred to the called routine, but hangs when this latter is done. No exception is raised, apparently. The program just hangs. Any help? Thanks. -- Rogerio Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59170

    - Problmes reading ComboBox Selected Value I am having unexpected difficulties reading the selected value from a combobox. I have a combobox that is bound to a datasource. ---snip--- sqlDALocation = new SqlCeDataAdapter( "Select distinct col2 FROM Cartons", DataBaseConnection); sqlDALocation.Fill(sqlDSLocation, "Locations"); LocationFilter.DataSource = sqlDSLocation.Tables["Locations"]; LocationFilter.DisplayMember = "col2"; LocationFilter.ValueMember = "col2"; LocationFilter.DataBindings.Add("SelectedValue", sqlDSLocation.Tables["Locations"], "col2"); ---snip--- Which currently correctly populates the combobox with 4 values. When I try to read the current combobox value in the SelectedValueChanged event LocationFilter.SelectedValue.ToString(); It does not return the proper text in all/most cases. The first item in the combobox is NEVER returned and the others are returned almost randomly. I'm sure I'm doing something foolish or missing something obvious.

    - New control ... suggestions needed I'm writing my first custom control in VS.Net 2003 (will port to 2005 soon). It will be a textbox control with custom painting. My first question is what control to inherit from? I can't find S.W.F.UserControl for .Net CF. :( That leaves the following (that I can find) as possible base classes: - Control - ContainerControl - ScrollableControl - Panel Given that my control will contain a toolbar, 2 scrollbars, and a custom text area (That's the meat of this custom control), which one should I use? Given that I also want to better understand they choices, why should I pick a particular parent class for this situation? Thanks! Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59156

    - Create a process and end the current process I am trying to develop a tool to help update the application. To do so I need to create a separate process to start an installer. I then need to end the current process, since it will be overwritten by the installation. I have found all the articles on creating a process and have tried using the coredll.dll and OpenNet options, but neither seems to be working. We I look at the processes it seems the main process (the caller) never ends. My belief is that the process I created is somehow still tied to the original process, but I really am unsure.

    - UDP Socket buffer issue I am getting a very strange error that only occurs in one particular case as follows: I split an array of bytes and send it as multiple udp datagrams from a socket in very quick succession. They are then received and re-assembled at the other end. For a particular byte array length (before splitting), I get socket exception 10040 on the receiving end telling me that the datagram size was bigger than the receive buffer size, but ONLY if I send the messages without a delay between them. If I do the following -> send message, PAUSE, send message, PAUSE, send message then the message is reassembled fine, leading me to believe that my buffer sizes are correct (255 bytes either end in any case). This also leads me to believe that with multiple datagrams at the port, the sizes are being read incorrectly, hence socket.receive is trying to read part of the next message into the buffer. Does anyone know of this issue? It only seems to occur for a particular byte array length, which I need to investigate. Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59143

    - Call to web service via Mobile Device with WWAN fails when passing more than 1K size parameter value I have a .net mobile application that makes a call to web service to read/write data from device's SQL CE to SQL2K database. When I call the web service methods with passing small strings, integers as parameters and receive dataset back it is not a problem. But when I pass Dataset as a parameter to a method (even if the dataset is empty) OR strings of size 1K or larger the call fails with following error message "Could not locate resource assembly". I looked up for this error message in Microsoft groups; I found some information about it. As per the recommendation I also deployed the application via Visual Studio .net which also deployed the required System.SR.dll assembly file. But I still get the same error message. Although the same function call works when used 802.11b/g wireless network OR Ethernet. The problem seems to occur only when using GPRS/WWAN network. The network team has monitored the traffic from the device to the server and confirmed that there is no data/packet loss. Is anyone aware of this issue? Any workaround/fix for this?

    - HP iPAQ and Bluetooth Stack I've got a HP iPAQ h5550 and I've today noticed that this hellish device does not use Microsoft's Bluetooth Stack. I think it uses Widcomm's Bluetooth Stack. What a pain! Therefore, I cannot use "open-source" libraries such as Peter Foot's or OpenNETCF's. Which are my options guys? Pay for a commercial DLL such as High Point Software's BTAccess? I can't believe my eyes! Having an iPAQ is really a pain when developing for it! The problem is I must support as much devices as possible, but I think it's very nasty to have to use a commercial DLL to some of them (iPAQ) and Peter Foot's libray for the rest.

It shows extremely big fonts and text which can't even fit into the device screen of the emulator. I can't even reach the "start menu" button of windows! Am I using a wrong emulator or there is a problem in this particular emulator. I have installed the emulator using the following - "WINDOWS MOBILE 2003 SECOND EDITION EMULATOR IMAGES FOR POCKET PC - WWE.MSI" released by microsoft. Could you please guide me on this one. Thanks a lot. Nitin Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59095

    - p/invoke problem with string containing utf-8 characters Hi I have a problem recieving strings containing non-ascii characters. The following code sets up the p/invoke: DllImport("Nccdll.dll", SetLastError = false)] static extern unsafe int NccWrapperReceive(StringBuilder msg, int size); The actual function (C) in the dll looks like this: int NccWrapperReceive(LPWSTR msg, int size) This usually works, but when the msg parameter contains a character above 0x7E, that character and any following characters "disappear". How do I get the entire string? Thanx! /peter Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59085

    - webservice question Hi, Can a webservice contain a paramterized contructor ( can't the contructor take parameters )? If two users make an initial call to a webservice, are those users accessing different instances of the webservice object on the server? (assuming the service is not designed to be a singleton) thanks Tag: ANN: Reminder MVP-hosted NetCF chat tomorrow Tag: 59066

    - Logging class for CompactFramework Hi, I'm searching a Logging class for my application but i haven't found anything on the net! Has anyone developed something and wants to share it? It would be really nice to have something like an Application Block for this kind of stuff (for example I've started to use the EMAB by OpenNetCF for Exception Management).
