Q: 

Select "Target Device" in vs2005's vcproj file.

I created a new project file using visual studio 2005. My target is to build for WinMobile 5.0 Pocket PC device. But I do not see the "Target Device" Bar enabled to select from it. Though I can go to project properties and select the device option but I want it to show up on the bar. Any idea about that ?

Also, If I copy the UUID from earlier working vcproj file and assigned it to newly created file then the bar gets enabled and shows Device/Emulator options to select from. Does it have anything to do with windows registry key ?

Thank you.
