Is SQLCE overkill?

[Pete]

I'm designing a handheld application to keep track of certain variables on a
given day. These variables are currently stored in a sqlce database. The
idea is to sync with a desktop application that would use these variables
for reporting. The handheld to desktop is a one to one relationship. The
only reason to sync with the desktop app is for greater reporting
capabilities, data integrity and storage. Is it overkill to use SQLCE for
this purpose or is there a better approach for data storage in this type of
situation?


Thanks,

You could use a file (for simplicity, probably an XML file) which gets
synced to the desktop.
