questions for a simple pocket internet browser application

Hi Everyone,

I created one simple pocket pc 2003 mobile application with visual studio.net 2005. And the form has only one web browser control. When it's loaded, I pass one address to browser and try to see the contents of the site. However, I got the following error:

Cannot Connect
Unable to connect; You have no modem entries created, and no network card present.

Of course I don't have a real pocket pc. And I just want to test my application with pocket pc 2003 SE Emulator. So Anybody knows the reason for this error? Is there any configuration needed to use emulator? Thanks a lot for your help.

The easiest way is to use ActiveSync through the Device Emulator Manager. I have posted a blog entry about the subject. You can find it here:

Hi Carl,

Thanks a lot for your help. I did follow the instructions in your blog. However, after I checked 'Allow connections to one of the following', there was only one option 'COM1' and I couldn't find 'DMA'. Do I need to install anything else?

Which version of Visual Studio 2005 do you have? Verify that you have a dll named "SERDMAAsPlugin.dll" in \Program Files\Microsoft Device Emulator\1.0. If you do not, you should move to the final build of VS2005. You may also try installing the standalone version of the emulator, available at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/windowsmobile/downloads/emulatorpreview/default.aspx

If you do have this dll on your system, it not might be registered correctly. Try using regsvr32 on this dll from a command prompt.

hi

I installed the visual studio.net 2005 in my system. I plan to use Pocket pc 2003 emulator for my applicaiion.development. From emulator browser I can able to access internet. But i can't run the asp.net mobile web application in pocket pc emulater from visual studio ide. I can only run the application in my normal desktop IE.

Suppose i give the URL in my pocket pc browser like : http://localhost:1319/mobileapp/firstmob.aspx

it show the error message like: The page you are looking for cannot be found

How to run my mobile asp.net application in pocket pc 2003 emulator directly from visual studio .net IDE?
