Need to debug over ActiveSync (USB), not wireless

Hello,

I have an iPAQ (PPC 2003se) with USB ActiveSync, which also connects to
our network via 802.11b. I have not set up ActiveSync over wireless.

I'm having trouble getting a web services client to work in VS.NET. It
works in the emulator, but not on the iPAQ, so I'm trying to figure out
if the wireless connection is part of the problem. What I'd like to do
is run it in debug on the iPAQ, using only the wired ActiveSync USB
connection. But with the radio off on the iPAQ, even though it's
connected via ActiveSync, I can't deploy or debug.

I've looked through this group and through VS help, but I can't figure
out how to configure the device in VS so it will use the wired
ActiveSync connection for debugging. I'm sure this must be possible --
any ideas anyone?

Thanks,
Dave Overbeck

Dave,

Can you be more specific when you say you can't deploy and debug. Does it
give you an error when you tried that? What actually happened?
Try looking into menu\tools\options\device tools\devices, make sure Pocket
PC device and TCP connect transport is selected.

Regards,
Willson
