I'm talking about Palm remember (not PC). It has a native Database Manager -
it's very very good. Pocket PC does not have any equivalent (it was planned
but never got there). YOu have to use SQLLite or something similar.
A conduit can be easily written in Java to hook into the Conduit Manager. It
can also be written in C++. Java is easy and it's very fast since there is
no visual interface. You can use the Firebird java driver to make your
connections.
