Programming PDA Applications in Delphi

[Guest_imported]

First, sorry for my english!!!

I would like to know if it is possible to use Delphi to programm application designed for PDA using Windows Pocket 2002.

I'm using Delphi 5 Enterprise and I think that is not possible with this version, but maybe with Delphi 6 or some external package it is possible.

Can you help me please???

At the moment I understand there are no facilities for developing applications to run on the Pocket PC platform (in any version) but I suppose this might change. However there is a development option for the Palm OS called Pocket Studio and you can get this under trial from

http://www.pocket-technologies.com.

We are now evaluating this for our own use but in the meantime we are using the Microsoft embedded options for the Pocket PC for current development (from the Microsoft Developer Network). Hope this helps (if anyone can prove me wrong I shall be grateful!)

Thank you for the response.
I knew that there were the Microsoft Tools. They are two specific tools, one is a special Visual Basic and the other one is a Visual C++ tool.
I think that they are free, but... they come from Microsoft and they are totally strange for the Delphi programmers.
If you want to use it, you must learn Visual C++ or Visual Basic. Visual C++ is a complex language to learn in some days, and I was programming in Visual Basic, but it is very simple.
The perfect tool could be some kind of third company tool to use in Delphi.
This is the package that I'm finding.

Anyway, if somebody is interested, I know that there are some free components to communicate with Windows Pocket with the normal PC in Delphi developed by TMS Software. They have a set of good components and also, these components are free.

You can find them in
