[AccessD] Hand held device

Mark - there is no requirement to dial - just keep the data in synch with his mdb at home.

  Does the device need to dial from the list...or simply lookup/update and 
  display the data?

  Thanks,

  Mark

  P.S...A few days ago Rocky asked a question  kinda similar...(Subject=Pocket 
  Access )...(You can search the archives) In my response I listed 2 
  inexpensive apps that I had bought(sorry I don't have the names in front of 
  me) that allowed to easily create apps/forms for an Hand held that would 
  sync with an Access db.  If you were just trying to display/update the 
  info...it might be a very easy/inexpensive way to go.
