There is this wonderful internet tool called Google. It can be your best friend as a developer. If you had put your question directly there, you would have gotten "About 104,000,000 results"(At least from where I am).

Check them out.

Voted 5 btw, as I think it's possibly the best answer for this question.

Solution 2

Is this for Windows Phone 7? (it seems to run CE underneath) If so, this is typically done via web services. The web service (potentially but not necessarily in WCF) does all the database handling, and the WP7 app just talks to the web service (and never directly to the database).

I would assume that a similar approach would work for pre-WP7 Windows mobile phones too.
