can anyone tell me under what conditions Pocket Access can be used with the
.NET Compact Framework.
If I have it right in my memory, there is a Windows Mobile 5 API providing
classes to use the Pocket Access format.
Do I need a Windows Mobile 5.0 device for this?
Does snychronizing via ActiveSync work?
Thanks,
Robert
Both are _not_ available on WM 5.0 as Pocket Access is depreciated and EOL.
However, it can be installed on to WM 5.0 separately and provider is
available from 3rd party:

Our provider does not support .NETCF v2.0 or Windows Mobile 5.0. If you are
starting a new .NETCF 2.0 project you should not be looking at Pocket
Access, either use SQL Mobile or another third-party database engine.
Neither option will give you built in ActiveSync synchronisation but there
are third-party tools to help with that e.g. www.primeworks.pt

thank you so far for your answers.
But I remember some Microsoft people telling that the support for the CE DB
(which is just another name for the Pocket Access database format) will
again be available with Windows Mobile 5 and .NET CF 2.0.
Unfortunately I do not have any more details about this. Maybe this was just
a planned feature which was cancelled later by Microsoft.

The CeDB database was replaced by eDB for Windows Mobile 5.

You say Pocket Access can be install on to WM 5.0 separately. How ? Where can I download the install ? Does it make Pocket Access Synchronisation enabled in ActivSync ?
Thks for your help !!

Just another fine example of how Microsoft dicks developers around on a
constant basis.

I heard rumor that says Microsoft will make available a
download to synchronise PocketAccess with ActivSync4 and
wm5 (see http://www.biomobility.com/faq.htm#ActiveSync4).
Does someone know something about that ?
"You can install the ADOCE dll's (they were included with the Pocket PC 2003
SDK, I believe) but it does not enable ActiveSync sync on WM5 devices, sorry.
