Image size

2009-11-25T18:33:41Z

We need to be able to reduce the size of a jpeg file. Our captures images
then prints an image to a Bluetooth printer. With the latest pdas we can do
3 megs images but the printer fails on anything larger than 2 meg. So we
take one image at 2 meg for printing. One step forward two steps back.
Any help appreciated.

Johnson,
You can use SQL Server Management Studio to view query plans for SqlCe.
Probably you need SSMS 2005 since the version you need depends on the
version of the SqlCe database you're working with.

Changing the Appl. Name

Hello,
I started a project (Win Mobile 6, MFC) with NAME1.
Then I wanted to change the name of the Appl to NAME2
(not the name of the whole project and the project-files).
In the settings I could change the name of the exe-file - ok.
Then I changed the name in the String table, the AFX_IDS_APP_TILE.

MFCCE300D.dll

2009-11-23T22:44:08Z

This DLL is required on your Pocket PC if you are to run the "debuggee" on your target device. eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 used to download these files for you, but somewhere along the line this feature stopped working (at least for me). A work around is to find mfcce300d.dll and olece300d.dll on your development machine and copy them to the Windows directory on your Pocket PC. Once installed, you will be able to run the debuggee on your target Pocket PC, and debug revisions as well

I have an application that uses a stream via HttpWebRequest.

As far as I understand, there is a bug in the CF. Is there any workaround
for this problem?
Thanks
