Hello all we have a wireless PDA in our yard and we are using VB.net 2003.
We want to know how we would enable our PDA to run a select statement off of
our Sql server and return some values based on the data in one of our tables
so they can see it without having to come. We are confused on the process
of this happening because some of the sites mention webservices along with a
web connection using IIS, others talk as if the only way to do this is by
cradling the unit with SQL also running on the local machine and doing
replication. We want our guys to be able to click on a button while
connected wirelessly and get 3 values from 2 different tables. Do we have
to load additional SW. Does there have to be locale tables on the device
itself. Alot of info out there just have not found anything that steps it
out depending on what you want to do.Is there a good website that defines
something similar out there if so I have yet to find it... TIA
 
You can connect directly to SQL Server using VB.NET, just using SQLClient. I
already did that connection.
