Hi, I'm fairly new to the .NET framework and very new to databases. I would like to make a program for the Smartphone (Windows Mobile 5.0) that keeps track of how much you spend.

For example, if you go to a restaurant, you type that in. If you pay for gas, you type that in too. All of this data will be stored into some database, and you will be able to view a summary of all of your spending.

I would like some advice on how to store my data (database? text file?) I want something that will work with just the .NET compact framework installed ... I don't want to install any extra database software on the smartphone.

Thanks for the help. :cool:
 
I have written a db driven application

I'm using VS .Net 2005 and program in VB.

I use SQL CE 3.0 database.

I am a taxi driver and my app uses various tables to store data like Shifts, Fares, Tolls and others.

reply here and I can help you start if you haven't already got it worked out.

regards, Ricky
