Does any one know if it is possible to run a wm5 application on android 2.2?

We have a sql database app that was written for the company I work for that runs on an HP ipaq running wm5. Recently we got new Motorola Defy phones. I am hoping to be able to run the sql app on the phone as the phone is so much more reliable than the ipaq.

I am a competent computer user and have no problem re-installing a computer from scratch but unless it is simple to do this I will require reasonable detailed instruction.


Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
Steve

Not possible. The code is completely different.

There is / was a Win95 emulator that ran / runs on Android.....but it's pretty hard to use on a small screen...and probably can't run any WinMobile apps anyway. 

But you can play Windows Solitaire on it. :-)
