    I just had a quick look and the SqlConnection class, which is for connecting to SQL Server, is supported by the CF, while the OleDbConnection and OdbcConnection are not. That would indicate to me that you can't use an Access database on the CF as you'd need to use one of those data connectors. I'd guess that one of the junior versions of SQL Server would probably be better in all regards any way.

    You can use access but Microsoft do not provide any default connection operator for you to use, you would have to create your own wrapper.

    I am writing something at the moment and I would recommend using either SQL Mobile, nice and simple, or using the latest SQL Everywhere which has greater support for syncing data backwardes and forwards between a desktop and mobile device.
