Mobile Application

[Doug Bell]

Hi,
We have a current application for some mobile Hand Held Barcode Scanners.
The current App was written in Delphi and I intend to re-write it in VB.Net.

Before I start can anyone recomend a News group for Mobile Apps.
The program will need to work disconnected and update our main database
whenever the HH device can get a reliable WiFi connection. This needs to be
a robust solution that ensures data trensfer integrity and I would like to
get some thoughts on the best approach and even how to detect that the
device has a connection and trigger the transfer.

Thanks for any advice.

Doug

Hi,

The best place to ask this question is
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework .

What you want is possible/practical using the Compact Framerwork 2 on the
appropriate device(s). I haven't done it, so I cannot give you the details.

Here are some links that may offer some insight:
