your own more fully-featured applications.
Follow these steps to access the wizard:
1. Start a new project in Visual Studio.
2. In the Project Types frame, select Visual C# > Smart Device.
3. In the Templates window, select Psion Teklogix Device Project.
4. Fill in the project/solution name in the appropriate fields and click OK to start the applica-
tion wizard.
5. If given the option to Select an SDK, select Mobile Devices.
6. In the Select a Wizard box, select one of the following:
• None - creates a simple “Hello World” program with a textbox and button.
• Scanner - creates a simple bar code scanner application to initiate a scan and display the
result.
• WWAN Phonebook - creates a simple phone book application that reads and displays the
entries on a device’s SIM card.
• WWAN Voice - creates a simple phone application that can initiate and receive voice calls.
Note: The wizard feature is only available in Visual Studio 2008.
