App doesn't show in Emulator [SOLVED]

[epixelman]

I have VS.NET 2003

I created a Smart Device solution.

I put a button and a text box on the form.

Start the app in debug mode.

Emulator starts fine. But my simple app is not even showing up on the emulator...

what's wrong?

Thanks

1. Is your development machine connected to a network. Don't know why but you need to have a network connection for the to debug on the emulator.

2. To verify this check if you application was deployed on the device. Look in the \Program Files\YourApplicationName and run YourAppName.exe to verify it works

look here for a great FAQ on the compact framework

Yes it is on a network. WindowsXP Home Ed

Do I have to have IIS?

I tried it directly on my Ipaq2215 and it worked perfectly.

What's the diff?

That is an awesome FAQ for mobile dev.
