    windows CE - connection to AS400 :(

    This is going to be my first windows CE app and I am very excited on getting it done. I am very comfortable with Visual Studio.net and I have decided to use VS 2005.
    I want to know if can connect to an AS400 database from my handheld app.
    I do see articles where you can connect to SQL server but i dont see anything to connect to AS400. In VS 2005 (Desktop ) I use System.data.oledb and it gives me the drivers to connect to as400.
    How can I get this done on Windows CE device application?
    Please give me some information on this.
    Thanks

    First off, I'd search this forum, as I seem to remember somebody else asking a similar question five or six months ago.

    The only DB connectors in the CF are SQLServer. Therefore, you will need a third party tool, or something like that.
