[RESOLVED] Framework for VS2005

Ok - first question...

I went into VS2005 and create a silly little exe with a text box on it.

Copied it to the BUSINESS folder on this iPAQ.

Tried to run it on the iPAQ and got "This application requires a newer version of the .Net framework...".

So I got onto the MS site and downloaded NETCFSetupv2.msi.

The MS site said it would use ACTIVESYNC to install it on the iPAQ.

When I try to run NETCFSETUPV2.MSI on the laptop it complains about a "Another version" already being installed.

Is that on my laptop? I thought this was going to install the framework on the iPAQ.

Help!

Hi,
it installs it on the desktop, and then on the device

Thanks petevick - I uninstalled the compact framework then ran the downloaded install - it processed it on my laptop and then loaded the CAB onto the iPAQ.

Could I just have run the install from the laptop without getting the download from MS (assuming it was the most up-to-date version)?? Where would I have found the install option on the laptop??

Hi,
SP2 has just been released (or in the last month anyway) - It would be worth installing that.
The install on the laptop for the PPC will be in program files\microsoft visual studio8\
and then compact framework folders

Aren't at a system with CF on at the moment, so can't give you the exact location
