How can i download a file from internet to the PDA using something similar
to winform's webclient.downloadfile (origin, destiny)?

Thanks

Hi,

You can implement the web client logic thru web services in pocket pc. What
u do is in the web service you have a method which takes the filename to
download as parameter and returns a byte array. Within the method, u open
the filename which u want to download, copy its contents to a byte array and
return the byte array. In the client side, u get the byte array, open a new
file. copy the array contents to the file and save the file in the device.

HTH,

Girish.
