Reading Serial Comm (GSP CF)
I am trying to read data from GPS CF using serial comm on Pocket PC 2002.
However, the result were some weird unreadable chars.
The GPS CF itself uses NMEA and I just follow its default settings.
Is there anyone can give some helps/support for me to solve this prob?
Thanks for any support/helps.

Make button on commandbar unclickable
Hi
I have a commandbar and i want to show a bitmap on the commandbar when
a function is enabled.
The only way i know how to do this is to hide or show a button.
I do not want the button to become depressed when it is clicked on by
the user. IS there anyway to do this?
I do not want the button to be grayed, so making it disabled is ruled
out.
In the calendar program that comes with any pocket pc, when someone
clicks on date on the commandbar, it is not depressed, or clicked, or
however u wanna describe the button sinking down.
Is there anyway to replicate this behavior?
Thanks a lot for the help!!!

Access SQL Server2000 over WiFi : PlatformNotSupportedException
Help needed!!!
I have developed a smart device application using VS.net
2003. It runs good at Pocket PC 2002 emulator that I am
able to access the SQl server2000, but when I finished
deploying it on the target PDA, Toshiba e740, and run the
application from the PDA, I got an error
saying: "PlatformNotSupportedException" and I found that
error caused by the code line SqlClient SqlConnection

Any one has any idea about this problem? How can I fix
it? Please help! Thank you in advance.

Targeting .Net CF
A few questions:
- I can create a new Smart Dev Application when I first create a project
from the New Project wizard, but how do I add CE as a build target later,
after I've created a "Windows Application"? The configuration manager
doesn't seem to let me do this. (E.g., I have a application that I want to
work in multiple environments -- desktop, CE, etc., it will resize, or
otherwise change behavior on the CE device.)
- What about class libs -- will they work on both platforms? (There's no
"Smart dev classlib" option -- but I thought there were APIs and
functionality not avail on all targets -- do I have to wait 'till runtime
before I get an error?)
thanks,

ANN: NetPerceptor 2 Network Awareness Control for the Compact Framework
Hood Canal Systems is pleased to release v2.0 of its NetPerceptor
custom control for the .NET Compact Framework.
Give your applications the ability to detect and react to the presence of a
wireless network. Knowing whether a wireless network is up or down is an
essential requirement for handheld applications. Now you can add logic to
your program that allows it to act differently depending if it's in online
or offline mode. Once you start NetPerceptor, it runs in the background on a
separate thread where it fires events to notify your application about
network status. With full Visual Studio .NET designer support, this .NET
Compact Framework custom control makes it easy to build powerful wireless
applications using either C# or Visual Basic .NET. NetPerceptor Personal
Edition works with an Internet or Intranet resource to keep your application
aware of the current network status. New features of version 2.0 include the
ability to work with Basic Authentication, to react to invalid IP addresses,
and to provide the local IP address and device name of your Pocket PC. This
control can be redistributed royalty-free when embedded in your application.

Some Pocket PC 2003 incorrectly running apps in "User mode"!
We discovered that some Pocket PC 2003 devices incorrectly run applications
in so-called "User mode", instead of "System mode".
This can cause multiple compatibility issues with Pocket PC applications
since there are things applications cannot do when running in "User mode".
For example they cannot execute the privileged instructions used to detect
the exact type of Xscale processor (e.g. PXA250/PXA255), and they also may
not be able to use some WIN32 API's.
From what we observe, we believe that the Pocket PC 2000-2002-2003 platforms
should always run applications in "System mode", but it looks like MSFT does
not provide a test to check that the Pocket PC 2003 platform builder is
properly configured, and MSFT did not warn device manufacturers about this
possible problem.
Most Pocket PC 2003 devices out there do run apps in "System mode", but some
don't.
We were able to catch the problem in a Pocket PC 2003 from Acer before it
hit the market, but apparently SYMBOL fell in the trap with their PPT8800...
So many applications will have compatibility problems on the SYMBOL PPT8800.
PocketTV Enterprise Edition is one of them :(
We will add a pop-up in PocketTV to warn of the problem when we detect it.
Comments from MSFT would be welcome... Tag: Don't forget us !!!! Tag: 68280

Text overlaying a Bitmap
Has any member had experience of overlaying text over a bitmap using MFC?
I have tried using a Bitmap control, then using the OnPaint() method to
draw the text over the bitmap. But this doesn't work, the text doesn't
appear if the Bitmap is visible, although perfectly if hidden.
I have also tried using the OnPaint() to load the bitmap, display it,
and then write over it. This works perfectly, but there is an
uncomfortable flash as the white back screen is displayed before the
bitmap is overladed.
And I have tried both together, which does not disply the text.
I really need a method of using the Bitmap control, then writing over
the top of it, but I can't find the correct method.
If anybody knows a better method, I would be very interested in knowing.
Thanks in advance,

We made some major changes to the library, adding a number events for
getting the current state of ActiveSync and the connected device. Now you
can detect when a device is connected, disconnected or syncing as well as
easily get the IP address of the connected device.

crash.
I suppose there is something i don't understand regarding bitmaps. Any
knows about it? I also tried some things with VB6. Still the same
result. The programs runs well but the picture stays unchanged.

I have a PPC, and want to get a siginal from remote controler.
Exactly, I want to make a remote controling s/w for other electronic device
such as tv ,dvd and etc.
so, I analyzed some similar soft wares.
The softwares receive signals from remote controler, and save it.
And then when specific key is pressed,the software send a signal among the
saving signals.
I want to make a software like it.
I think , the softwares use Irda port.
If you have any documents or get a referenct site url, please let me know
...
Thank you. Tag: Don't forget us !!!! Tag: 68200
PIE bug with %20 in file URL's
I typed the following URL of an existing file in the address-bar of PIE :
file://\Program%20Files\PocketTV\PocketTV.exe
and it did not work, I got:
on Pocket PC: Error: Cannot open "Files\PocketTV\PocketTV.exe"
on Smartphone: Error: The page you are looking for cannot be found
I did the test on Smartphone 2002 and 2003 and Pocket PC 2002
Of course, on Smartphone 2002, I used the URL
file://\IPSM\Program%20Files\PocketTV\PocketTV.exe
and on Smartphone 2002, I used the URL
file://\Storage\Program%20Files\PocketTV\PocketTV.exe
I also tried with document files located in \My Documents, same error.
It works well as long as there is no space in the file pathname. But %20 is
still not handled properly in file URL's.
Apparently this old PIE bug made it to Windows Mobile 2003 ... jezzzz!
:(

What national Languages?
Hi,
I have almost completed a Pocket PC application which I
intend to release commercially.
Other than English, I am wondering what languages are
supported by the various hardware manufacturers?
Also does anyone have an idea of the relative sales per
language, i.e which language should I target next, based
on market size?
Thanks,

IR port access
I am trying to access the ir port directly. I see that
people can do things like read ir output from other
devices such as remote control for tv so, how? It can't be
by irda because that is not the same as the remote spec.

Question: Beginning Pocket PC 2003 Development using VB.NET 2003
I've got a simple question on getting started to develop applications
targetting Window Mobile 2003 Pocket PC devices, using Visual Basic
.NET 2003.
On my development machine, I have installed Visual Studio .NET 2003
and after that, the Pocket PC 2003 SDK.
To begin a new project, I selected Visual Basic Projects->Smart Device
Application. The wizard will bring me to a screen where I'm supposed
to select which platform my code is targetting. The only options I
have are:
1. Windows CE, with the following devices: Windows CE .NET Device,
Windows CE .NET Emulator, Pocket PC Device, Pocket PC 2002 Emulator.
2. Pocket PC, with the following devices: Pocket PC Device, Pocket PC
2002 Emulator.
My question is: What am I supposed to select to begin coding for
Pocket PC 2003 devices? I'm expecting to see something like Pocket PC
2003 Emulator and Pocket PC 2003 Device, since I've already installed
the PPC 2003 SDK... or am i missing something.
Thank you very much!
