VB 6.0 Application running in Pocket PC 2002

[herci]

Hi..
I have an application developed in VB 6.0 ,running in a Server and I need to run that app from a Pocket PC v2002, In fact, I am running it from the Pocket PC using the Terminal Services Client, but I would like to know How can I fit the app to the pocket pc screen,in order to have the app centered in the Pocket Pc?


Any kind of information will be appreciated,

Thanks

I've created apps in VB6 then moved them to the Pocket-PC. A bit of work, but not impossible.

You first have to get the "Microsoft eMbedded Visual Tools 3.0". You can download it or order it on CD for about $8.

Then create an eMbedded Basic project. Copy the VB6 code to the PPC code.

There are a number of differences in the coding where you have to check the syntax, but you will get errors at every one of these. Just fix them and you can get the code to work.

I like to program in VB6 first to get the overall program working and because it's faster and debugging is better in VB6.

I then copy all the code to a text file, and just copy the code over to the PPC project. File access will be different (no handles), how you end the programm will be different (app.end), and a bunch of other little things.

Hope this helps.

You could take a look at MobileVB at

I'm a VB6 programmer and am considering this product.
