Hi everybody!
I am developing for a Symbol PPT8800 with Visual Basic .Net 2003.
I've desisted from using the emulator because it doesn't work
(TypeLoadException and more), so I am developing my application
deploying (Debug>start without debugging) to the device every time.

The problem is that the deployment process takes to much time because
all the dll's included in the reference section of the project
(system,system.data,...) are copied to the PDA (serial connection)
every time I start the application.

My question: Is there any way to specify not to copy these files to the
PDA? They are already in the target folder. I was thinking about
something similar to the "build action" property for each dependent
item (forms, etc.) of the project, but references don't have it.

I'm beginning to feel desperate...
Thanks a lot!
 
As far as I know that is not possible.

BTW, you really should get to the bottom of the TypeLoadException...

Cheers
Daniel
