How to put a file to the emulator

[Frank Kreißel]

Hi,

I have just written my first program for pocket PC and it works as well on a
real PDA and on the Emulator.

But now my program should read a file in the PDA - it works too on the real
PDA, but I don't know how to put the file to the emulator.

Can anybody help me in this "fundamental" problem?

Regards

An easy way is to add the file to your VS.NET project and set its file
properties "Build Action" to "Content".

I had the same problem.

You can use the Device Emulator Manager from the tools menu in visual
studio. Connect to the emulator then cradle it and ActiveSync should
kick in and allow you to explore the files just like the real device.

Sorry, with both possibilities (Simon and Mark) I did not succeed. Perhaps
ist doesn't work, perhaps I made bad things.
But I found the page
http://www.ianywhere.com/developer/technotes/windows_ce_copy.html and there
a simple and easy going way.

Thankyou!
