Andrew

does any body know if you can run Access and develop
Access Forms to run on a Pocket PC, and have it connect
to An Access DB on a Network?

If so, were do I find out about it.

Thanks Andrew.
 
No. There are various ways to share *data* between PC and Pocket PC, but you
can not run Access on a Pocket PC. There is something called 'Pocket Access'
on the Pocket PC, but it is *not* a version of Access - it is a database
engine only, with no UI. It should have been called 'Pocket JET'.

To add to Brendan's abswer. There is a pocket Excel, which you can use for
transferring data back and forth. For forms, you can build them (but they
aren't as sophisticated as Access forms) with a product called HanDBase,
which will sync data with Access.
