  1. Navigate to the solution file (*.sln), and double-click it. By default, the solution file is copied to the following folder:

    C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Samples\Common\CPP\ATL\AXSample

    Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 launches and loads the solution.

  2. Build the solution (Ctrl+Shift+B).

  3. Open to the AxSample project properties.

  4. Navigate to Configuration Options > Debugging.

  5. Set the Debugger to Launch to Smart Device Native Debugger.

  6. Set the Remote Executable to \windows\iexplore.exe.

  7. Set the Command Arguments to \Program Files\AxSample\AXSample.htm.

  8. Deploy the solution (F5).

    The sample is copied to the device, and is registered. Internet Explorer Mobile then automatically launches and navigates to axsample.htm.

  1. Load the AxSample.HTML file with Internet Explorer Mobile.

  2. Try clicking the buttons and circles that are displayed.

  1. Click Start > Run.

  2. Type the path-name to SamplePrivDeveloper.pfx certificate, and click OK. By default, this is located in the following folder:

    Copy 
    C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Tools\Security\SDK Development Certificates

  3. Double-click the SamplePrivDeveloper.pfx certificate icon. The Certificate Import Wizard appears.

  4. Click Next. The certificate path-name is filled-in.

  5. Click Next.

  6. Click Next (you do not need a password).

  7. Click Next. Accept the default options; automatically select the certificate store based on certificate type.
