Hi,

I have to develop a PocketPC application with a local database. Is it possible to import the schema from a desktop database and create the database in the PPC using LLBLGen Pro? Is it possible to synchronize the local db and the back-end db? Any documentation to work with LLBLGen on PPC? Any ideas where to start?

Thank you for your suggestions in advance.

-Nacho.

Question : Is it possible to import the schema from a desktop database and create the database in the PPC using LLBLGen Pro? Answer: It is not possible to create the database using llblgen pro, that part you have to do yourself. Question: Is it possible to synchronize the local db and the back-end db? Answer : I think you can use llblgen to make it easier but you still need to create the logic to make it work. Question: Any documentation to work with LLBLGen on PPC? Answer : In the documentation supplied with the beta there is a file called CFnetsupport.htm there is some documentation, it is a start but it will require some extra effort on your side to get started and make it work. Question :Any ideas where to start? Answer : see above.

I found it a real pain to work with CE I've to say. I too sought for a solution to at least get the schema of my db in sqlserver CE, and after a long struggle I managed to export a DDL script onto the PDA, import it the QA lookalike tool on the pda for SqlCE and after modifications of a lot of things I was able to create a db.

There should be some tools for sqlce replication with sqlserver, though I'm no expert on that. As drewes said, llblgen pro can't help you there, other than working with xml data from/to a server/webservice.
