pocket PC connecting to published web service
-
Hello, VS 2005 SQL Server 2005 I have a pocket PC application and have a web service. The pocket PC will connect to the web service and the web service will get the information from the database. This works fine when using the emulator and running from the local host. Later I will have to deploy the web service and install the solftware on the Pocket PC. My question is once that has been done, how will the Pocket PC talk to the web service on the internet so that people using the PDA can download there data? Is it a question of using connecting PDA to the internet and the web reference URL will connect to the web service. Getting the data from the database is not a problem, only the Pocket PC to the web service. Many thanks in advance, Steve

What do you mean by it works fine in the emulator? If it works through the emulator, theoretically it will work on the device. What are you doing to get it to work in the emulator? Basically you set up the WebService reference in your CF project, and create a WebService object with that url, and work through the exposed web methods.
