I just dont get it why MS would go to all the trouble of developing a VS 2010 express (and Full) with all the bells and whistles , C# etc without adding a database. Is there anybody that devlops an app without a database ??
Its a bit like releasing a Porshe without an engine......sure it will work but you got to get somebody else's engine or start pushing

>>I've just been doing a bit of experimenting and reading up on Windows 7 Mobile, but a few google searches would seem to suggest that there is no in-built Database with Windows Mobile 7 ?. Surely this could not be true....MS spend millions develipong a new OS and leave out a database , the one thing all applications, even Mobile Apps, will require.
>>I see thare are some add-ons that you can get, but surely there is a built in database ?
