How would you like to have your desktop Access or SQL Server databases with you on your Pocket PC or smartphone anywhere, any time?
Pocket DB is a database program designed for the new Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PCs, the Palm Treo 700W in specific, and all WM5
devices with a square screen in general. Whether you want to have a simple AddressBook table with only dozens of addresses, a movie
database with several hundred records, or multiple tables with tens of thousands of records for things such as financial
transactions, Pocket DB can handle these with ease. The program uses the latest SQL Server Mobile database engine. In order to use
Pocket DB, you must already have the database files .sdf reside in your Pocket PC. The .sdf files can be exported or synchronized
from Microsoft Access or SQL Server database to your device from your desktop PC using 3rd party tools such as Data Port Wizard,
Data Port Command, or Data Port Sync from Primeworks (www.primeworks-mobile.com). Pocket DB was designed from the ground up to
handle tables with large number of records. It only retrieves and displays the number of records that the small Pocket PC's screen
can display. This significantly helps in record navigation tasks and makes the retrieval of any record a snap. You can retrieve
records in seconds even on tables with tens of thousands of records on a slow 312 MHz Palm Treo 700W. Using Pocket DB, you can add,
edit, remove records on your Pocket PC. Data can be accessed under both "Grid View" and "Record View" modes. The program offers a
filter facility so you build custom filters for fast access to your data. Advanced users can issue SQL statements directly to the
SQL Server Mobile engine to have total control over the manipulation of their data.
