what's the general concept? Most games use their own files for data storage & you will find discussion about reading delimited items etc but I have not seen access in discussion.

Will you be reading & writing only at set times or throughout gameplay.

The only time I've used Access is for web page queries using asp scripts on win2k machines. It works great, but that's because I needed to run queries.

So, if you could do that on the pocketPc, what would be the benefit? Would you run a query to get data to use for rendering?

The only game specific reson I could see to use Access would be to keep stats for all the players/monsters in an RPG...

Ok, so I did't help any, did I?
