Yes. Porting at the application level may involve a simple copy of the executable (.exe) file and its related files. At a more complex level, you may need to use Visual Studio .NET tools to rewrite portions of the source code to accommodate different core operating system issues, such as the difference in registry keys and settings. You will need to use Windows Embedded Component Designer to define the application in an .sld file so you can import it into the component database.
