Sounds like you just don't know what you're doing. I sync and surf
with the same settings on my iPaq 3950 with PPC 2003. No problems
since dumping PocketHosts and setting WINS and DNS to the actual WINS
and DNS server address, which is NOT the same as the machine that I
sync to.

Just as I could AutoSync and access a mapped network
drive, I went into communications settings, made no
changes, and suddenly I could not connect. I then run the
welcome application in the windows directory and presto I
can communicate again.

It seems to me ppc2003 does not know what it is doing. I
am not stupid, look around the newsgroups to see how many
others have problems.

I am eagerly awaiting the firmware service pack from
microsoft.

Hi,

It is a Win forms app written using VB.Net in VS .Net 2003
The only thing I changed between successful running in debug
mode on the emulator was, I made some labels and controls bold.

For some reason now it fails on InitializeComponent() of my form frmVehcDesc
:

    Public Sub New()
        MyBase.New()

        'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
        InitializeComponent()

Which called from this snipet of code via the frmVehcDesc.Show command:

        Try
            ............
            ............


            If UCase(Trim(txtPwd.Text)) = UCase(Trim(strPwd)) Then
                g_strUser = txtUser.Text

                Select Case cmbApp.Text
                    Case "Testsheet"
                        Dim frmVehcDesc As New frmVehicleDesc
                        frmVehcDesc.Show()
                        frmVehcDesc.Update()
                        Me.Hide() ' Hide Login From
                    Case "Inspections"
                        Dim frmInspect As New frmInspection
                        frmInspect.Show()
                        frmInspect.Update()
                        Me.Hide()
                End Select
            Else
                Label4.Text = "Incorrect Login - Please try again."
                Label4.Visible = True
            End If
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox("Error: " & ex.Message & " could not login.")
        End Try

The ex.Message is  ex.Message "NotSupportedException" String
with  ex.InnerException.Message Referenced object has a value of 'Nothing'.

I noticed on some of the InitializeComponent declarations in my project it
has appended:

<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> Private Sub InitializeComponent()

Any ideas, I am at a loss here.
