So following on from my query the other day about access on a mac, I'm just looking at other options, would it be feasible to run an access compatible app on a pocket pc type pda - with a view to uploading/downloading data to a main database? any views gratefully received.

I think my easiest work around it to virtualise the mac as recommended the other day, but my old palm is not wifi'd etc' and as I cant get an iphone in canada a new pda might be useful tool in other areas.

thanks

Many of the PPC database come with an Access sync.

I used to use HanDbase, but that was a few years ago, not had cause to use an WM Database recently.

abcDB is another one that gets mentioned as being good.
