Emulator for CE 2.0 in VB6.0

[Guest]

Hi,
I wrote an app in VB .Net for some HPCs running on CE 4.0. For various
reasons, I need to rewrite the same app for some machines running on CE 2.5
in VB 6.0
I can't get the emulator that came with the CE toolkit to work.
Does anyone have an idea of where I can find a good CE emulator for VB 6.0

Thanks.

There isn't such a thing. All the emulators pre CE 3.0 (and many would
argue pre device emulator) pretty much sucked. I don't recall there ever
even being one for the old VB add-in. I also know there was never a CE 2.5.

If it's CE 2.11 then there was never a VB6 tool to allow development for
that platform (I think that tool ended with CE 2.0?) - there was eVB (which
did have an emulator). eVB has long since went the way of the dinosaur -
not sure if it's even downloadable any more, but it was part of eMbedded
Visual Tools 3.0.
