WM5 - Error tying to create a SDF data base on my device

[Stephen Plotnick]

I'm using VS 2005 and trying to learn some programming for my pocket PC;
actually a phone with WM5.

I installed the .net framwork 2.0 on the storage card and I've installed SQL
Mobile 2005 on my desktop; I'm not sure if it installed on the device.

I go into VS 2005 and the Server Explorer and try to make a new SQL server
database directly on the deivce. I have been successful creating one on my
local hard drive.

I;m getting an error during the creation. "Microsoft development Environment
(Title) with a message "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition and/or .NET
Compact Framework v2.0 is not prepoerly installed on your mobile device of
the device is not responding".

I was able to see the tree and get to a directory that I point to prior to
this message.

Thanks,
Steve

You need to install the *dev* cab file ie:- sql.dev.ENU.ppc.wce5.armv4i.CAB
for PPC.

I have a Samsung IP-830I PPC phome from Sprint. I do not know how to
determine which is the proper CAB to install.

I do see all of them under C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
8\SmartDevices\SDK\SQL Server\Mobile\v3.0\wce500

THanks,
Steve

For that device you need to install the following CAB: C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SmartDevices\SDK\SQL
Server\Mobile\v3.0\wce500\armv4i\sqlce30.dev.ENU.ppc.wce5.armv4i

I'm still getting the message. How can I verify the two components are
installed.

..Net Framework and the SQL Mobile?

Via code try using the Uninstall CSP, you can query uninstallable
appliacations.
