Hi Philip and Ritu. I would suggest you have a look at a product called Extend-Connect (EC) http://www.extendedsystems.com. We have used it in several applications that needed to synchronize data with an SQL server database.
Slightly simplified, the EC software consists of a small client installed on the Palm device and a server system installed on a Windows server. Via an administrative interface you map SQL tables or views to a Palm db. Those databases are then kept in sync. via a normal sync. procedure. Kind regards, Ola Theander > -----Original Message----- > From: Phillip Streck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: den 19 november 2001 16:00 > To: Palm Developer Forum > Subject: Re: SQL server > > > Well first when you say a backend, are you going to be > transfering data from wirelessly to the palm or durring a > hotsync on the pc? > if the latter is true you simply need to write a conduit > which accesses the sql server via odbc or some other database > connectivity method and write it to a custom record format on > the palm.
