We are developing Stand alone application in .net compact framework 2.0 targeting windows ce 6.0 operating system.
But don't have any windows Ce 6.0 testing environment.
Can any one give details how to setup Windows Ce 6.0 Testing environment?

You can't. .NET Framework 4.5 requires Windows Server 2008 at least as can be seen in the System Requirements page:
System requirements
Supported Operating System
Windows 7 Service Pack 1
Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2
Windows Vista Service Pack 2
Windows Vista SP2 (x86 and x64)
Windows 7 SP1 (x86 and x64)
Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (x64)
Windows Server 2008 SP2 (x86 and x64)
Hardware Requirements:
1 GHz or faster processor
512 MB of RAM
850 MB of available hard disk space (x86)
2 GB hard drive (x64)
The latest .NET framework version you could install on Windows Server 2003 is .NET 4.0.
You need at least IIS 7.0.
Here are the requirements for .NET 4.5 framework:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8z6watww%28v=vs.110%29.aspx
You're going to have to use .NET 4.0, which porting your project over shouldn't be too painstaking.
Take your project and change compatibility to 4.0 for framework.
Fix some of the errors, and EF errors you may get, and repush to the IIS 6.0 server.
You need to ensure all the runtimes are installed, and the app is running on the
.NET 4.0 pool.
IIS 6 is part of Windows Server 2003 (and technically XP 64-bit).
.Net 4.5 cannot be installed on Windows Server 2003, thus IIS is not supported.
I'm a little new on Window Embedded Compact 7.0(WEC 7) so I have some question about it :
1- Is there any handheld device that runs with it? All I found run on 6.5 and lower win CE versions ( check this link please : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/evaluate/windows-embedded-handheld-devices.aspx)
2- what's its .Net framework version? .NET CF 3.5 or .NET CF 3.7 ? I don't know whether its technology related to windows 7 or windows phone 7. If its .NET version is .NET CF 3.7, can I run my old .NET 3.5 apps over it or I should change them to silverlight version? (As I know I cannot run them on windows phone 7)
3-I couldn't find any screenshot of it.
4- For window phone 7, there is a free add-on on VS 2010 for development (although publishing is not free). Is there any free development toolkit & emulator(handheld emulator indeed)?
Thanks in advance
4-..or Completely I'm in a wrong way of thinking? ;-)
About your questions:
1- Is there any handheld device that runs with it?
Yes there are.
The Windows Embedded Partner Program might give you more alternatives
2- what's its .Net framework version? .NET CF 3.5 or .NET CF 3.7 ?
Windows Embedded Compact 7 includes the .NET Compact Framework 3.5
I don't know whether its technology related to windows 7 or windows phone 7.
AFAIK, it is not related to Windows 7, and it is not realated at all with Windows Phone 7.
If its .NET version is .NET CF 3.7, can I run my old .NET 3.5 apps over it?
The .NETCF version is 3.5, so yes, you can run your old >NETCF applications.
or I should change them to silverlight version?
If you do that, then your application will not work anymore. WinCE 7 does not support managed silverlight, it only supports something that is somehow called Silverlight but it actually targets development in native code using C++.
3-I couldn't find any screenshot of it.
Here, enjoy:
4- For window phone 7, there is a free add-on on VS 2010 for development (although publishing is not free). Is there any free development toolkit & emulator(handheld emulator indeed)?
You can use VS 2008, but AFAIK it is not possible at this time to create an emulator for it, since Microsoft has not released the Emulator BSP for WinCE 7.
I want to know Whether OPENXML SDK provide support for linux platform or not?
Supported Operating Systems:Windows 7;Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2;Windows Server 2008 R2;Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2;Windows Vista Service Pack 2;Windows XP Service Pack 3
It MIGHT run under mono but I really doubt it. It depends on .Net 3.5 and System.IO.Packaging which has a partial implementation in mono.
I want to update the IIS server from 5.0 to 6.0 or higher.
The condition is that I cant upgrade the server. My machine is Windows XP SP3
Is there any way I can only update the IIS.
You can install IIS Express 7.5 on Windows XP. Note that the Express version is a lightweight (yet fully featured) version of IIS meant for development purposes, not production hosting. You shouldn't use Windows XP as a production server anyway.
You can run it on XP Pro 32bit
Check the link here - http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/868/iis-express-overview/
I have installed IIS 6.0 Manager for my Windows XP SP3 32-bit from this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=15662
In Control Panel->Administration Tool (I guess its name translated from italian :) now I have two items:
Internet Information Services - the 5.1 version bundled with the OS
Internet Information Services (IIS6) Manager - the installed version from the link above
I've Motorola Symbol Handheld Model MC3090 (from symbol MC3000 series), having Windows CE 5.0.
Is it possible that i can upgrade the Handheld OS from CE 5.0 to CE 6.0?
In Short - NO.
To be able to do so you need to have the BSP (board support package) to build an image for Windows CE. Each OS is built specifically for each device. When you say Windows CE 6 it means nothing since it is a componentizied OS and your OEM (Motorola) decides what to put inside.
According to device's specs I think it has Windows Mobile. A different beast than Windows CE, but based on Windows CE 5. There is no Windows Mobile based on Windows CE 6.
In any case you cannot change the OS version without the OEM.
