Re: Why am I getting an assert when I try to Load a bitmap that I have added to the image?

Thanks, Bruce I will try that!

I cannot connect remote file viewer without having the sdk installed, if the
sdk is not installed I have this options to connect to:

Select a Windows CE device:

Standard SDK Emulator->StandardSDK Emulator

and that uses a different image and and the standard sdk, so this I don´t
whant to connect to!

My name of the Platform is Halloween, if I choose built and install the sdk
I have this options to connect to, besides the others :

Halloween->Halloween Emulator
->Halloween Device

So without installing the sdk I cannot connect to anything, and not from
Embedded Visual C++ either.

Do you have any magic way to connect that I don´t know about?
