Extend Contact/Calendar ...

[Chakra]

How can we extend the functionality of the Contacts or Calendar application
in a CF.NET application ?

Chak.

Not directly from .NETCF since the API to do this (POOM) is COM based and
..NETCF v1.0 has no COM Interop. However it's possible with a wrapper, this
article demonstrates the technique:-

Why do we get the 'missing method exception' when we run the sample
application from 'inthehandpoom.asp', as well as the 'POOM example'
downloaded from MS ?

"An unhandled exception of type 'System.MissingMethodException' occurred in
InTheHand.PocketOutlook.dll" is the error i get (i am using VS.NET 2003 on a
Windows 2000 Professional) when i try the above dll ...

The version included with that article includes a native dll which is
specific to X86 architecture - you can only use it on the emulator. If you
download the current demo version it's fully managed so you can also run it
on real devices (http://www.inthehand.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=67)
