Re: Calendar control in compact framework 1.1

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Also btw do you suggest any other third party control which might provide a
better datetimepicker control then this? thanks

the DateTimePicker but lots of other classes and controls which are missing
in .NETCF v1.0 which you'll be used to using on the desktop. It's packaged
as a .cab file which you install along with your application which will
install all the SDF .dlls.

hmm, that is strange. So there is absolutely no way other then thrid party
control. How has your experience been with this Smart Device Framework
v1.4 ?
i am right at the final moment of a deadline and this news is definelty
not
good. got two questions for you

1.while doing the develpment i used text boxes just to get it gong, now
when i am replacing it with these controls , hope it is going to be very
easy
transition. Please state your experience.

2. Also how does the deployment work, i am hoping that i will jsut have to
include this in my compact framework project and while deployment just
copy
this control to barcode scanner with the appilcation it should just work,
Please let me know .

thanks

hi all,


Environment :
Visual studio 2003
compact Framework 1.1 :
using winforms with VB.NET :
Emulator's OS : windows CE.NET

all i want to do is use the regular calendar ( date time) controls in
my
winforms compact framework develpment. i can see that the datetime
control
is
selected in my list of controls but i still do that see it in my IDE's
toolbar to use ? does this mean there is no datetime control at all to
be
used in compact framework 1.1 with my winforms?

thanks for your answer, quick answer is highly appreciated.

thanks
Sameer
