deploying question

Hi!

I've developed an application with visual studio 2005 and compact
framwork 2.0. Both beta 2. Is it possible to deploy this program to a
device running windows mobile 2003se? I mean I didn't use anything of
the new windows mobile 5.0 stuff like status api etc. If it is possible,
how can I do it? I can only select a wm 5.0 device/emulator to deploy??
Convert project?

THX!

I think you have built a PocketPC Magneto project, that is, "A project
for creating a .NET Compact Framework 2.0 forms application for Pocket
PC Magneto and later". Pocket PC Magneto is the "other name" for
Windows Mobile 5.0. I've tried myself and it seems like you can only
deploy to Windows Mobile 5.0 devices or emulators.

In your case, you should build a Device application for PocketPC 2003
using CF 2.0, under Smart Device projects. That is your case: "A
project for creating a .NET Compact Framework 2.0 forms application for
Pocket PC 2003 and later". And don't worry, after building you
application with this new kind of project, your application will work
on Windows Mobile 2003, Windows Mobile 2003SE and Windows Mobile 5.0.

Hope that helps. Regards.
