    - re: Sound in VB.NET Hi Zalek, You might find touch tone sounds, wav files, by searching sound files on the Internet, then you will need to use platform invoke to play the sound in native code as there is no managed method to play sounds in the .NET Framework or .NET Compact Framework. For an example, see: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229685(en-US,VS.80).aspx Note that in Visual Studio 2005, Visual Basic users can insert a pre-programmed snippets into the code editor for a variety of tasks. There is a snippet for devices to PInvoke a sound. In the Form1 class in the code editor: - Right Click, and select Insert Snippet - Select "Smart Devices" then "Device Operating System" then "Play a Sound File." Hope this helps, - Bruce Hamilton .NET Framework User Education Microsoft -----Original Message----- From: Zalek Bloom Posted At: Saturday, December 17, 2005 10:19 AM Posted To: microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework Conversation: Sound in VB.NET Subject: Sound in VB.NET Hello, I want to write a telephone dialer program usingVB.NET.

    - Bring NETCF.cab into a .msi installation Hello, i have developed an application for WM5.0 using compactframework 2.0 Now i'm programming a setup installation with this very good explanation: http://blog.opennetcf.org/ctacke/binary/DeployingApps.htm Everything works fine so far but i wonder if the following would be possible: Can the .msi check if CF2.0 is installed on the device, and if not install it? What's the common procedure for this, how do other applications handle this? Do they say "Please download .NET CF 2.0 from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9655156b-356b-4a2c-857c-e62f50ae9a55&DisplayLang=en before you proceed"? Is there a bestway for solving this? cheers David Tag: tooltip Tag: 62963

    - VS2005 ArgumentException with GetString Hello, I have a compact framework project that was built in VS2003 and I'm trying to now use that project in VS2005. It seemed to import OK, compiles, but I'm getting "ArgumentException was unhandled" on this line of code: Me.TableView1.Text = rm.GetString("Tables") I don't know where to start, as there are no such problems with the same code in VS2003. Here's my initialization of the System.Resources.ResourceManager rm: rm = New System.Resources.ResourceManager("My_Project.Strings",System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()) My file Strings.resx seems to be there, and it does have an entry called "Tables".

    - Error message - installing .NET CF 2.0 on device (CE .NET 4.20) Greetings, I am trying to deploy a VS 2005 Pocket PC app to the above mentioned handheld (a PSC Falcon 5500). I dragged my CAB file over to the device, and installed it, however the app will not run. I receive a brief hourglass, then nothing happens. I figured it might be that the device probably doesn't have the Compact Framework 2.0 on it. I found the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\CompactFramework\netcfsetupv2.msi file, ran it, went to Modify, selected to install Deployment, and I get the following error: (caption) "Invalid Windows CE Setup Files" (message) "Application Manager cannot install this application on your mobile device due to an invalid setup file.

From here I get a list (using "Ndis80211BSSIList" properties) of available Access Points and their signal strengths. 1. Problem is, I don't know which one in the list I am connected to. 2.

    - Arrow Keys and Tabbing for WM5 using .NET CF 2.0 I am writing test applications with VS 2005 for the WM5 and have a questions about the tabbing behavior related to the arrow keys. When I have a MFC Smart Device application, using the arrow keys take the focus to the next control just as if a user tabbed. (Note: I have the WM5 SDK Installed) But when I have a .NET CF 2.0 application, the arrows keys don't take the user to the next control. The controls have the Tab Stop and Tab Index properties set properly. Is there something special needed to have the arrow keys behave like the user is tabbing? Shouldn't this have been automatic like the managed code's controls? Tag: tooltip Tag: 62882

    - DIALUP RAS Hi group, Has someone an implementation of the RAS API in VB.NET (compact framework) Know I 'm using a third party dll (unmaneged) to control this. When I use the DialUp function from the third party vendor to set up a connection with, let's say, "My connection", I can't use "My connection" from within windows Mobile any more. My goal is to set up a dialup connection with "My connection" from within VB.NET in a way that I can use the same "My connection" in Windows... A working RAS API in VB would be excellent.... A good connection manger to establish and maintain a GPRS connection on CE and Mobile 2003 would beo nice too. Some help would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, Mobile boy Tag: tooltip Tag: 62881

Can anyone point me in the right direction, and also if i should use the 32feet.net library in order to achieve this? Any small code example appreciated as this is first bluetooth attempt for me. thanks, Paul Tag: tooltip Tag: 62817

    - Performance worrying problem - Bad architecture maybe Hi guys, I've got a very worrying problem in my CF 2.0 application. I don't know the exact reason for so poor performance, sometimes combined with "OutOfMemoryException" messages. Could be a bad architecture design problem. Ths is my actual scenario: The application has got near 25 forms and I have one MasterForm from which the rest of the forms inherit. This MasterForm contains basically icons and some static variables I use for different purposes inside all forms of my application. I call the first form of my application "MainForm". Here we have three very different choices (imagine three buttons). When any button is clicked, I always open corresponding form with ShowDialog() method. Each choice can simultaneously open 5/6 forms maximum by using ShowDialog(). Therefore, I understand 5/6 forms are opened in memory sametime. Correct me if I'm wrong please. Imagine that I choose a button and navigate and navigate and.....I finally have 5/6 forms opened with ShowDialog(). When I close the actual modal form (fifth or sixth form), I use the simple this.Close() and sometimes also return a DialogResult value. If the previous form must perform an specific action, I use static variables of the previous form, which I activate from the actual modal form. In the previous form, I capture Activate event and do the correct action if the corresponding static variable has been activated. An example would be to save something and when returning to the previous form, refreshing the screen with the newly saved data. This means a new database access. This could be the main bottleneck of the application. The operations are against SQL Mobile 2005 database. I always access database to retrieve latest data, don't use caching at all. With this scenario, all I can tell you is that sometimes application seems not to response, and ultimately, if you stress it hard, "OutOfMemoryException" occurs and new data is not refreshed in the screen. Suddenly data is "lost", and if you close the from and open it again, data appears again......in one word: desperating! I would like to hear any suggestion for a better performance please. It really hurries me. My project is becoming more and more complex and I think now, I've got the last chance to reorient or redesign its architecture. 2006 could be too late. Specially advices related to the way of opening/closing forms and database accessing and caching. Thanks very much. Regards. Tag: tooltip Tag: 62815

    - Components on the PocketPC Hello, I'm starting to write for the Pocket PC. My first task is to translate my current Windows components to Pocket components. Right on the start, I can't reference a Windows component in my Pocket project, as VS2005 is telling me. My question: is it possible to have a common component project so that I don't need two versions of the same code (one for the Windows, on for the Pocket) ? For example, if I need to update the component, I don't want to end up updating two times in two components that contains the same code. I thought code re-use would be great since we're in .Net. But it seems that the compact framework is not so close to the Windows framework. Thanks for the info, Neb Tag: tooltip Tag: 62809

    - HTTPS bug with web services in .NET CF v2.0? Hello all, I am writing a .NET Compact Framework v2.0 application which communicates with a back-end system via a web service, using HTTPS for transport. I am experiencing a problem where the first 256 characters of the request are mysteriously cropped from the message before they arrive at the server side. If I make the request over HTTP, it is received correctly, so it only seems to be HTTPS which is causing the problem. If I import the web reference into a desktop .NET Framework application and call it from there over HTTPS it also works fine, I have tried it using Apache Axis with Java as well which worked fine. As such, the problem seems limited to the .NET Compact Framework. I am about to try it with a v1.0 Compact Framework program to see whether this is something that has been introduced since then. Has anyone else come across a similar problem? Is it a known bug? If so, are there any workarounds? Thanks in advance, Iain McGinniss Tag: tooltip Tag: 62804

    - Strange bug in "Smart Device Authentication Utility" I'm trying to connect to my device using Smart Device Authentication Utility. I launch the sdauthutildevice.exe on the device, select the correct network device and start. On the PC i launch Smart Device Authentication Utility and enters the device ip address. I click on "Set up device" and Smart Device Authentication Utility displays a fairly large, completely blank message-box. Not even the "OK" button has a caption! Anyway, after klicking the blank button on the messagebox the Smart Device Authentication Utility status says "connected". However, I cannot connect to the device, and checking the processes running on the device i do not see ConnmanClient.exe process. I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2 (Swedish), VS2003, Windows CE .NET Utilities v1.1 for Visual Studio .NET 2003, Xscale/pxa270, Windows CE 5.0 with all QFE:s up and until Q3 2005. Any ideas?

    - CF1.0 to CF2.0 problem after conversion I am trying to convert an existing VS2003 .Net CF - C# app into VS2005 and get the following error. I have verified that the file exists and is referenced but I still get this error. I have a feeling this has to do with the VS2005 beta2 screwing up my system (I'm now running the VS2005 release). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

    - Can't get rid of that task bar Playing around with having a kiosk mode application on Pocket-PC, I always end up with the task bar doesn't hide and is always on top. I'm working with Visual Studio 8, C# and .NET 2.0. For testing I have a Symbol PT-8800 and the emulated Pocket PC 2003. First I've tried to maximize my form with code like this: private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { // menu = null; FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.None; WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized; } Maximize does work, but the taskbar is not covered. It's hiding the top of my form. Next I've found that example code which is working with SHFullScreen(). Which hides the start icon with SHFS_HIDESTARTICON for some time, but SHFS_HIDETASKBAR doesn't work. The input options menu on the right bottom disappears too but only when SHFS_HIDETASKBAR is set, on the other hand SHFS_HIDESIPBUTTON is ignored too. But anyway SHFullScreen is not the solution I'm looking for, first it's not .NET (so far as I understand) and second it will not work on CE Clients. Latter I cannot verify, 'cause "CE 4.2" will not work with .NET 2.0 and I don't have a "CE 5" emulation, but that's another story. So, how do I get a kiosk mode application in pure .NET and C#?

    - Problem with Databinding Hi: I have a winform with several tabs and controls in each one. I build databinding: Me.txtMarca.DataBindings.Add("Text", dtFhipec, "timbrado") Me.oBMB = Me.BindingContext(dtFhipec) dtFhipec is a Datatable, and oBMB is a property BindingManagerBase. I delete last row, as following: Me.oBMB.CancelCurrentEdit() Me.oBMB.RemoveAt(Me.oBMB.Position) Me.daFhipec.Update(Me.dsFhipec, "Fhipec") Me.oBMB.EndCurrentEdit() However, controls in form have sames values as before deleted row.

With VB.Net can I have a tooltip (or similar) functionality on a text
box? Is there a third party control that I can use if the standard one
does not support it?

thanks

Since most devices don't have a mouse pointer, it is pretty pointless to
have tooltips so generally the answer is no. The only tooltips the platform
supports is when you press and hold on a toolbarbutton and that is supported
in CF v2.0. For links on tooltips see this:
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework/browse_thread/thread/e583e5c67fb34c06/c17a73699613f330
