| I am looking at buying pocket PC's for a mobile sales force application, and I have always been led to believe that a version of the Access engine exists on the PC (accessible from VB application via ADO?) but only that there is no Access IDE like there is on the desktop. However, following this thread I would simply get the impression there wasn't even the engine on the PPC! - only mention is a few who questioned the fact that Access apeared in the activeSynch options. However, I am told by the software vendor that Pocket PC 2003/Phone edition no longer has the engine, and we will need to investigate using SQL Server CE or another Access compliant DB if we use the PPC we wan to buy (O2 XDA GSM/GPRS). SO , does Pocket PC have the Access engine or not, and if so have they removed it wit 2003/Phone edition??? Please clarify. | ||
