hello,

I am current developing a smart device application using VB.net I am facing
fallowing issues.

1. my forms have large number of fields which I could not accomdiate on
single form. What is the best practice to tackle this situation.

2. I want my database to be stored even when closing my emulator. If i
currently do this, it give me deployment errors forcing me to clear the
emulator state. In this case how can I make my database. persistant in the
device so that i need not to create it again and again.

3. Can there be a MDI sort of thing. I want a set of Manus appear on all my
forms.
 
1.
Use tabs,
scroll the form,
create a wizard type app (back | next) using panels
or best of all display less so your user doesn't get tired of data entry on
a small device

3.
Not a true mdi. You'll have to manually replicate your menu structure on
multiple forms giving the illusion that the menu never changes

Cheers
Daniel
