ok i got my all suite all ready and i even created a little program just to get a feel for things.
I am using Visual Studio 2005 Pro with the mobile 5.0 sdk.

I am having one problem though. I am quite unsure how to deploy it as like a .exe so i can just run it on my pda stand alone. If anyone has any tips then post up.

Whenever you build the program in visual studio, it automatically creates an .exe file in the subfolder "\<project name>\obj\Debug". Look in there and youll find the exe... just transfer it via Explore Files on activesync.

You could also build it as a release in visual studio but what i listed above should get you what you need.

Transfer it to ppc and it will run.

And if you've run the program through visual studio, its already copied the file over, along with the proper support files. Just look under Program Files and the name of your project, you should find it there.

Yes i used the emulator though.

Well, when you run it under studio again, tell it to deploy to your device instead of the emulator, and it'll copy everything over, and be running on it.
