  • Hi Mohamed,

    Although I am relatively new to the mobile dev world - I am curious as to why you would want to use another DB? The SQL 2005 CE version is free, has a much smaller footprint than earlier versions and synchs up really well with SQL, access and other source db's using RDA or Merge replication. If you are developing in .net the ADO.net tools for hooking into SQL CE are well documented and easy to use as well?

  • Hi Mohamed,

    If you are looking to have a live connection, as opposed to a connection to a database on the mobile device, then in your C#.net Smart Device project, just define the connection, add the table or stored procedure to the dataset and the data is available for use.
