'''Embedded Visual Basic''' or eVB, is an implementation of Microsoft [[Visual Basic]] which is geared towards generating programmes for embedded systems such as [[personal digital assistant|PDA]]s, cellular telephones, modern [[pocket computers]] and other programmable electronic systems<ref>Microsoft Web Site, accessed 3.

Embedded Visual Basic is available from Microsoft, as are other such tools including Embedded [[Visual C++]] (eVC++), which is discussed in the Wikipedia article about [[Microsoft Visual C++]], and Embedded [[Visual J++]] (eVJ++), as well as other development tools and a relational database system for Windows CE (a de facto Visual FoxPro replacement). A centrally important Windows CE-related tool is [[ActiveSync]], which allows access of a device from a desktop computer as well as Control Panel functionality (e.g. Install & Uninstall Programmes). Amongst other tools is a version of RegEdit for Windows CE.
