Hi Thomas,
What VS version you use when developing your app with the Xamarin?
Thank you.

>>I donÄt know if this might help you but for inventory check I have written an Android App which collects data in a sqlite-db and sends it via ftp to a server where it is processed by my vfp-application. The hardware used is from Zebra. The app is written in C# using Xamarin and it wasn't too complicated.

>>Hi,

>>Years ago I had a very smart guy from Bulgaria develop an app for me that worked on Motorola MC55 and allowed customers to process work orders on this app and then upload the data to my VFP/SQL application. I did the upload part, he developed the app on the Motorola MC55. This app worked very well (except it was a pain for me to maintain the hardware).
>>In any event, the Motorola MC55 do not work any more because they (MC55 devices) had an older MS OS that no longer works with Window 7 or later.
>>Ideally I would like the app to be working on either iPhone or Android (so that I do not have to support the hardware).
>>
>>Anyone developed an app on iPhone/Android that works with VFP application? If yes, what language you used? Or was it web-based? Any information would be helpful.
>>
>>TIA
