I have to go with iarla. &nbsp;If you want to write to the P/CE device. use printf. &nbsp;If you only have the devlepment tools (no platform Builder) you won't be able to redirect the current output strings. &nbsp;

That's pretty much what I wanted to confirm. &nbsp;We're looking to print the debug msgs out on the pda, not Dev Studio on the &quot;main&quot; computer.<br />
<br />
So it looks like its WM_COPYDATA land for me!<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

If you're using DevStudio and have a P/CE device hooked up to the serial port, OutputDebugString writes to your main machine. &nbsp;I'd like a way to write debug strings to the P/CE device.
