The goal of this tutorial is to use
eVB to access a database that has been transferred to your Pocket
PC. If you have not already imported some sample data to your
Pocket PC then read Transferring
data onto your Pocket PC.
This will tutorial will show you how to:
- create an ADOCE connection to a CE database
(.cdb file)
- read data into a list box using an ADOCE
recordset
In this example I will be creating a new project
for the Pocket PC, so I select Windows CE for the Pocket PC when the New
Project dialog comes up.
The first thing I do is change the Scale Mode
of the Form object from Twip to Pixel. Next select Project Properties
from the Project menu.
- Set the Project Name, Description and Remote
Path.
- Make the sure the Frequency of the Update
Components is set to Ask or Always and the Runtime Files/Project Components
under Components to Update has nothing checked.
- Change the Run on Target option from Pocket
PC Emulation to Pocket PC (Default Device).
Click OK.
Select the References from
the Project menu
and check the CE ADO Control
3.0 followed by OK.
Next save the Project and Form in an appropriate
directory.
