what replace MS-Access synch in Mobile 2005

[Guest]

Has Microsoft completely dropped support for desktop database
synchronization? Previously I had a lot of success with eVB and vb.net
applications and mdb/cdb databases that could be synchronized with
activesync. I used SQL CE and merge repl. for more advanced networked
applications. But since ADOCE is dead and SQL 2005 express doesn't support
merge replication as a publisher, what developer tools can I use to
synchronize a desktop database like Access to a Pocket PC database? I don't
want to go the HandBase route.

Fred,

Have you had any responses?? I too am trying to develop a WM5 app and am
finding great difficulties finding a solution for the mdb to cdb problem.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

No answers. I think the only options are SQLCE with replication or rda,
developing with Appforge, or going to one of the off-the-shelf solutions like
handbase.

Good Luck!
Fred
