Thanks for your answers, but...


I don't know which one choose. I heard about SQL-Server, but I think it's too expensive to my proyect. Now I must study hard about what is the better DB.

Have you work with any of then? Which one?. I only need the database engine to program my aplication. I don't need visual components.

Thanks.

Jmorras,

If your database will not contain too many records, you may be able to make-do with the built-in database (CEDB). With ADOCE you can access it through a dummified version of SQL. It does not support everything the big guys do, but depending on your project it might be enough.

Access works fine. The loading of a table to the device will cause the WinCE software to automatically convert to .cdb file and from there on out you can access using the EVB methods. I have been very satisfied with Access as a database to be created on PC and exported to hand held device.
