    Wince ce or phone

    I have simple app (about 30 hours of work) that runs on XT or win7 and would like to run it on a portable device...is there any simple way to convert it to run on win CE? what add-ons or converters are available?

    I'd really rather not have to start over!

    Especially since there aren't any phones that run/support VB6... at the very least, it means a move to .NET Compact.

    There was a CE Toolkit for VB but even if that were to work on the phone it would still require a rewrite as there are many differences in the compact edition.
