Smart device form designer

[wossname]

I just started up a new SD app for a laugh and the all of the controls in the toolbox are disabled. Can't you drag and drop controls into a Smart device form?

Do I need to add a reference to something??

Above the Windows Form tab in the control box, there should be another tab called Device Controls, which has all the controls for smart device forms

Can't see anything like that. Cant find an option for it anywhere either.

what happens when you right click on the toolbox and click show all tabs?

also when I tested i selected pocketPC, not windows CE (not sure if that matters?)

I haven't had that problem for any CF stuff. When I start a new smart device project (I think it is also pocketPC, not Windows CE, but I don't know whether or not it matters), all the tools appear just as they do for a regular windows app. Basically, for me there's no difference.

What version of VS are you using?

Perhaps you will have to try Format C:
