JD #1 / 2	Urgent help needed please help Hi, Can anyone answer the following please: I have a VB program I have written using a MS Access database.It was written with VB 6 enterprise using a office 97 Access database and written on a Windows NT machine. I need this to be able to work on a small hand-held system, that has a built in scanner. But most of the hand-held systems that look like they might be suitable either run DOS (no good) or at the best Windows CE. Will my system work on Windows CE? If so what are the implications if any? Will this have to be re-compiled on the Windows CE hand-held? Will 8 meg of memory be enough to run all this or could I get away with 16 meg - which is about the best that these systems offer? If anyone can answer any or al of the above I woulf be most greatful. Also if anyone knows of a suitable hand-held with built in barcode scanner please let us know. I desperatly need to get an answer to this. Thanks in advance. Jonathan. -- Nongy's Law Also Rule #1 Never chase women or buses - you will always get left behind.

Trevor Brau #2 / 2	Urgent help needed please help Windows CE will run ADO, and VB6, for most of your code. Have you checked the MSDN? Under Windows CE Documentation/Application Development there is a Windows CE Toolkit for Visual Basic. Or on MS website at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp This should help you find the answers to your questions. Pay close attention to the Appendix. Hope this helps, Trevor Braun Dept. of National Defence Quote: > Hi, > Can anyone answer the following please: > I have a VB program I have written using a MS Access database.It was > written with VB 6 enterprise using a office 97 Access database and > written on a Windows NT machine. > I need this to be able to work on a small hand-held system, that has a > built in scanner.
