Where to put database on PocketPC Device

[Poewood]

I'm trying to connect to an access database that has been converted to a .cdb
database on my Pocket PC. I'm having a problem getting the connection string
right. Does anybody have a clue as to where you put an object on a PocketPC
and then connect to it. Does it have to be in a specific place or can it be
anywhere on the device?
This is the string I have now. I can get more specific like \Storage
Card\PSR.cdb
connString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\\PSR.cdb;";

Can I even connect to a .cdb databse with the Jet.OLEDB.4.0?

Thanx for any info u may have.

Are you using the compact framework? I haven't worked with it for a while so
I might be wrong, but to my knowledge the only database that can be used is
SQL CE. There are possibly 3rd party assemblies that will allow you to use
"Pocket Access".
