I am new in .net frame work. I have to build application in dot net compact
frame work. Please let me know following: -
(1) Can I install visual studio 2003.net on operating system "Microsoft
Windows 2000 family server"?
(2) I want to use "SQL server 2000 windows CE" also. Should I install it
seperately or it is inbuild with visual studio 2003.net ?
(3) Can I install "SQL server 2000 windows CE" on my desktop PC having OS
"Microsoft Windows 2000 family server"?
(4) What is difference I will see if I use OS "Microsoft 2000" or OS
"Microsoft windows 2000 family server"? Should I use OS "Microsoft 2000"
rather then OS "Microsoft Windows 2000 family server"?
 
1) You should be able to find information on requirements on the packaging
for the product (VS.NET), or in the product readme file.

2) You have to install it separately to the device. The ability to *use* it
comes with the .NET Compact Framework.

3) That depends on what you mean by 'install it'. No, you can't use it as a
desktop database on your desktop computer. You should be able to use a
desktop computer as the transfer medium to get it installed on your Windows
CE-based device. Again, requirements and compatibility information are in
the product readme.

4) For this type of thing, developing applications for Pocket PC devices,
the server OSes are usually not tested by Microsoft. Windows 2000 Pro would
work fine and Windows Server *might* work, but there are no guarantees.
