Windows CE and inputPanel

[Thore Berntsen]

I'm converting a project from the Pocket PC platform to Windows CE. I hav
used the inputPanel in the Pocket PC application and that is not available
on CE. Does anyone know if there is a good component somwhere that I can use
instead? My device (a Intermec CN2) has a built in keyboard that's a part of
Win CE, but I don't think that is a very good solution.

You may create your own Input Panel but you should write it using eVC
because it's impossible to create SIP in CF.NET. How it can be done see
this example:

And for more information see:

It's up to the device OEM to decide that it's not there. Our devices have
SIPs and they're Windows CE.NET 4.2, not PPC...

You say our devices. Does that mean that You work for Intermec? I'm testing
a cN2 know and have seen the SIP, is it possible to control this SIP from my
program?

No, but we produce devices generally similar to Intermec devices. What do
you want to do with it?
