Hey,

I am a newbie here, trying to detail my problem. Please bear with me. Thanks.

I wrote an application in VB.NET for Pocket PC with SQL CE being the back end, runs fine on Pocket PC 2003 and emulator.

Now I need to code/test barcode scanning. Since the only barcode scanner I have is a built-in in a windows mobile 5.0, I had to deploy the application to this windows mobile device. (The device is connected to my PC thru blueTooth via active sync.)

In VS2005, I changed target platform to be winCE 5.0. I started debugging, and then chose deploy to winCE 5.0. Then I got an exception "Missing method exception is unhandled, Can't find PInvoke DLL 'sscemw20.dll'." on one line "Public frmSync As New LibraryMaster.Sync" (which is declared at main module. What LibraryMaster.Sync does is to open database connection and used to sync data from PC to device. )

So, I had to stop debugger. Found application is deployed to device under program files\applicationName\, but it cannot run obviously.

I know 'sscemw20.dll' is probably sql ce server stuff, but other than that, absolutely no clue.

Ying
