Hi Brett,
thanks for your reply. yes, i'm programming for PocketPC. i guess, i 
understand what you mean, but the problem is that, i'm actually a student, 
and this is part of my project. judging from what u've said, it means i have 
to buy those commercial softwares rite? i'm not sure if the school will 
allow that... if what i guessed is rite, i think, the school will prefer us 
to program it ourselves... coz it's more cost-saving for them... =(

therefore, is there anyone out there, who can tell me how to achieve that, 
without having to buy anything?

thanks in advance! ^_^

Pansy
