problem running app on windows mobile 2003 second edition device

[Guest]

I have an application I wrote that works fine on my windows mobile 2003
device. I just bouth a new device that has windows mobile 2003 second
edition. When I debug the app through VS 2003 on the device it works fine.
However as soon as I try to run the app on device after deploying through vs
2003 or installing it with a cab file it doesn't work right. The program will
start fine put when I do certain things it white screens and says I need to
install a newer version of the compact framework on the device. Both
handhelds are running the same version of the CF. Any ideas what is going on?
Thanks

If your application uses SQL CE or SQL Client, make sure they are installed.

These components are not the part of the NETCF and are installed separately.



As to the message you see, it's basically MissingMethod or TypeLoad
exception for a class with NETCF PKT in strong name.

NETCF assumes if method or type supposedly belongs to NETCF is missing, that's
because applications was compiled against newer version of NETCF.

SQL CE and Client have NETCF PKT, so if they are used but missing, this
confusing message will be generated.



Another possibility is incorrect installation. If that's the case, hard
reset/reinstall is recommended.



Best regards,



Ilya
