>I have a client that bought a Pocket PC PPT 2800 made by Symbol. He wants to take the unit out into the field and use it to scan and count his inventory of plants. Then bring it back and synchronize it with his desktop version. I need to develop the Pocket PC app and the desktop version. If this were just a desktop app it would be a breeze. However, the data input app must run on the Pocket PC. Has anyone developed a VFP app for the Pocket PC? What is involved with developing and installing a VFP app for the Pocket PC?

The VFP 8.0 runtime does not run on a Pocket PC. Visual Studio .NET 2003 is a great tool for Pocket PC applications, both connected and wireless. Refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnfoxgen8/html/vfp8_creatingmobilesolutions.asp for how to integrate mobile applications using VS .NET 2003 together with VFP applications. Refer to http://msdn.com for other general Pocket PC development resources. I'm sure others can chime in and comment based on their experience with Pocket PC development.
