Answer 1

The error message you're getting suggests the DLL isnt present.

If you get past that hurdle, you're still not liley to be home and hosed - CDO is a related to Outlook/Exchange, so isnt very likely to just transparently work.

Answer 2

Compile the source code as a mobile dll file.

You can use mobile dll files on the desktop, when it has the compact framework installed. (see comment from ctacke for why)

Answer 3

Can you verify that Interop.CDO is available on your mobile platform? Or that it is compatible with the mobile environment

Answer 4

You can't use CDO on a mobile device. The "goo" underneath just isn't there so even if you somehow got that recompiled for the device (which I doubt you can do anyway) it still would do you no good. How about telling us what problem you're trying to solve rather than how you've already decided (erroneously) to solve it.
