is there anyway/package ? to have ODBC support for a compact framework based
application ?

any of you knows about any such solutions ?
whether free or commercial ?
 
LLoyd:

What are you trying to access? An odbc source like Oracle Lite or to be
able to hit a Client/Server datasource from the PDA?
 
I should answer YES to your 2 questions.

Here is the whoel story, I try to write a (nearly) database neutral
application.
so far I'm able to access (from the PDA): SqlServer, MySql & FileMaker

I would like to access more database.
many competitor support ODBC which gives access to a wide range of database
at once, I would like to have the same capability ...
instead of having to write ADO.NET driver for database one by one ...

I look at mono (http://www.go-mono.com) there is code alreayd for plenty of
DB but I have to port to CF and check the functionality of the driver.
And unfortunately their ODBC driver use interop ....
