Julian,

As far as i've found out, you can't do this directly.
I once downloaded a program by MS called Visual Basic Embedded Tools (or
something like that, i'm sure it had "Embedded" in the name), which was like
a "light" version of VB, which would compile a file (i think it was a .prc,
but i may be way way off) which you could run in a Pocket. I didn't have one
to try it out at the time, there were only emulators and i lost interest.

But what i remember is that it was pretty similar to VB, looked simple to
use, and it was free.
It was something like an 80 Mb download.

Oh, i think this is it (you gotta love google)

Also, if you're interested in .Net, there is a .Net Compact Framework which
is designed to run in Pockets, and i've heard Visual Studio .Net 2003 has
support for Pockets, but i haven't seen in yet. It is supposed to be easier,
though.

Ok, this is all i know. Sorry for the inaccurate/incomplete information. I
just hope it can lead you in the right direction to start looking.

Good luck with this, and if you find anything out about it, i'd be very
interested to know
Daniel
