I have a VB.NET pocketpc application that I need to port to the desktop. What
is the best way to do this? Does anyone know where there is a list of steps
or checklist?

Thanks
 
Have you tried just running the app (the .exe)?
The .NET CF is a subset of the .NET Framework. If you are not using 3rd
party libraries like those at www.opennetcf.org , it should work.

I just tried this and it works on my apps, though the fonts are not sized
properly.

If you design the pocketPC app to retrieve its settings from a config file,
you should be able to parameterize the fonts and so on so that it will
display correctly on both, just changing the config file (app.exe.xml ).

I am using 3rd party libraries including OpenNetCF. How do I handle those? I
tried just adding the forms by "adding existing items" from my smart device
application to a windows application, but the form objects are all resized
and moved, ...
