Where can I get a copy of Access for the Pocket PC?

[Guest]

I have written a financial system for my Boy Scout Troop in Access. The
system is currently on my desktop computer. I would like to also have it on
my Pocket PC. Does anyone know where I can get a copy of Access for the
Pocket PC?

There never was, or is a pocket version of ms-access. There are some
references to pocket access on the web, but these are talking about a data
engine only.

You can use the embedded VB tools to make a applications for the pocket pc.
I have not checked, but when I last looked, the tools where free!

If you don't want to use a traditional programming development environment
(like VB), then there are a number of easy to use database systems available
for the pocket pc.

Thanks for the reply. I understand that there is no way for me to transfer
my desktop MS Access program to my Pocket PC.

I got confused when my version of MS ActiveSync gave me the option of
syncing my Pocket PC with 'pocket access'.

Thanks again.
