Are you testing both methods in the same application?

Dan East, no. Two different applications.

refractor, something happens BEFORE calling MessageBoxW in C application I can't understand.

Then that's your problem. It's been so long since I migrated my apps from CE 2.11 to CE 3.0 (Pocket PC) that I can't remember the specifics, but there is a method the OS uses to determine if the application is legacy PSPC. Your entire application will exhibit that style - not just the message box.

Look at the PE header of your EXE files, fields OS version and Subsystem version. OS uses them to change API functionality.
