VB on CE?

Hey all

has anyone done any development in VB on Windows CE? Anyone know of some good guides that tell you what you can do and can not do? Like one of the things I found when playing around with VB on CE is you can't do "Unload Me" to exit.

Thanks

Hi Azh! currently I'm developing an application that run under WinCE platform & the processor type is MIPS and x86.

As far as, I know the if yoou wish to unload an application in WinCE platform, you need to type App.End instead of using the End statement.

Also, ADOCE have much much less command as compare to ADO for Win9x and WinNT platform, sometimes you need to use the File or FileSystem object to read write a file. quite difficult as well.

For those WinCE web site, I'll post it in next 2 days, cause I bookmark it in my Lab development PC.

A little off topic, but how much room does a protable computer have??

As far as I know, the latest pocket PC is only have 16MB ROM and 16MB RAM and the CPU speed is 133MHz with MPIS architecture & not x86 archetecture.

So, I there much much less hard disk space available for the WinCE programmer do develop a large application.

My recommendation is to use VC6.0++ to develop WinCE application, cause it much much faster as compare to VB. This becasuse VB is not same the application in EXE format (Bunary) but in *.vb & it need the Pvbload.exe to translate it before it can display on the pocket PC LCD display and it VB still need a lot runtime DLL.

But for fast GUI application VB still the best choice as compare to VC.
