pc) in time,so we forbid employees to change clock of pocket pc.I don't kown
How to do it althrough I thought about it for long time.
2:Because security requirement, when Employee lost his pocket pc, My
program must delete all important data. so I want to develop a screen
protect program which like settings password of pda,when device unused for
some times,my program require user to log on, after fail to log on three
times ,My program delete all data. I have searching for the document about
it for several days,but I did't found it.
someone please remind me to resolve the two problems!

You can use a CeRunAppAtEvent notification and find out whenever the time is
changed and change it back. You *might* be able to overwrite the default
time control panel applet. It would have to be done in C/C++ and not sure
the protection level in PPC and I don't have one to check.

As James said, you have to implement kiosk mode preventing user
from access other applications in Pocket PC.

And you need to implement a timer mechanism to show your
screen savor or login screen after idling for a period of time.

That article in OpenNETCF.org forum would helps a lot!
