The thing that jumps out at me is that there is no drive "D:" on the pocket pc device.

>I am using eMbedded Visual Basic and trying to develop an app on a pda. I am using the following code in the "click" event of a button on a form. I have already added the ADO reference. All I want to do is connect to an Access Database, but I keep getting ActiveX component can't create object. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!! Thanks in advance.
