I asked in a previous post if C# would work on a Pocket PC, however, I am
not sure if this is the same as Windows CE so that's why I am asking.
 
Keith,

For both, you will need to develop using the Compact Framework, which is
a subset of the .NET framework. Both should work on Pocket PC and Windows
CE.

Hope this helps.

Is the Compact Framework a part of Visual Studio .NET 2003? I wonder if you
might step me through the process of getting started or perhaps you know a
good link?
 
It's part of 2003, you need to make sure you installed it.

If you do File --> new --> Project --> Choose your language

you should see a "Smart Device Application" option. If you don't go back to
the install and make sure the following is installed:

Visual Studio .net
|
_ Language Tools
|
_ Your Language Choice
|
_ Smart Device Programmability

When you choose the "Smart Device Application" it will ask you if you want
CE or PPC OS.
