Compact Framework - Setting the input mode to “numeric”

posted by  varson (7)  15 months ago (blogs.msdn.com)

For certain fields in my application, I want to set the input mode (usually to numeric – eg for the distance, final mileage and date fields numeric makes most sense). This makes a *big* difference to the experience on the SmartPhone so take the time and trouble to set input mode where it makes sense. This requires a bit of interop as the Compact Framework does not provide a direct mechanism to do this. The following MSDN articles show you how to change the input mode.
