Porting a VB 2005 (XP) app to Win CE 5.0 is HARD! Help?
I made a basic application for XP in VB 2005. All it does is randomly flash the numbers 2 through 9, as well as A, J, Q, K. (cards in one suit of playing cards). It leaves one of the cards out, and the trick is to try and pick out the missing card quickly.
Anyway, it's a silly little game that I want to be able to take on the go, so I thought I would try and port it to Windows CE 5. I thought it should be easy. I started a Windows CE 5 project in VB 2005, and moved most of the code to it (and redesigned the form to fit on screen)
I can build and deploy without any errors... but, when I try to run the EXE that gets deployed to my device, I get a nasty error:
"Cannot find 'DeviceApplication1' (or one of its components). Make sure the path...."
No idea what's going on - and I've really tried everything before jumping on here for help.
My only clue, is that the same exe (found in the project's "bin" folder) actually runs fine in XP. I wouldn't have thought it should, since it should be compiled for CE 5, right?
