Visual Basic .NET Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 is the PC development environment
for Visual Basic .NET applications for Win CE .NET. Visual Studio .NET
2003 can be purchased from Microsoft at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/.
The VB .NET execution environment on the device is the .NET
Compact Framework. Visual Studio .NET packages and distributes the
.NET Compact Framework as a .cab file.
Both developers and end-users should insure that the .NET Compact
Framework that is installed on the device is the same as that which
was used to develop and test the VB .NET application.
Lastly, there are several essential DLLs that are distributed on the
Accessory CD, Part Number 77159-951-55. Run
InstallFromActiveSync.exe from the CD to install the file set named
DLLs needed by .NET.
ATTENTION
The .NET Compact Framework is not installed on the PanelView
Plus CE device. It is the responsibility of the VB .NET application
developer to provide an installation package for both the VB
.NET application and the .NET Compact Framework.
