I cannot seem to run or use or find Pocket Access on my new HP 4705 running
2003 second edition.

Does anyone know what I need to run Access in this new version?

I have searched the Microsoft web site and cannot find any information about
it.

Thank you for the speedy response. The link is great and finally answered
my questions. I had a very old handheld that did have pocket Access and I
made the incorrect assumption when I moved up that it would still be there.
I can now stop looking for it and start looking for other options.

Regards,

Earl

No, No, No. Pocket Access is not like Pocket Word & Pocket Excel. It is
essentially an application that converts a *.mdb file to *.cdb file for
use on a Pocket PC. (MS MVP's please clarify if not correct). It is
neccessary to purchase 3rd-party software to access the data in the
*.cdb file. I personally HIGHLY recommend SprintDB Pro (www.pocketGear.com).
