[LAZARUS] Access Remote SQL Server Database on WinCE programming

Question

I'm programming using Lazarus (Freepascal IDE, Delphi Like), and i have a problem when i need to connect into a remote SQL Server database on the network.

My question:

1. Is there any way to connect to a remote SQLdb on Lazarus?
2. What is required connector type for SQL Server 2005?
3. Is there any ODBC driver available for Windows CE (Windows Mobile 5/6)? (If so, I could use TODBCConnection...)

I already searched and asked on the Lazarus community forum but didn't get any response

Answer 1

Best to ask db component questions on the fpc-pascal or fpc-devel list.

1. ? Can't you simply configure that in the connection component by inserting a dns name/IP? The exact way is typically db-dependant. (connectionstrings)
2. ODBC (*)
3. Apparantly not default. Maybe 3rd party substitutes can be found.

(*) I'm planning to convert the ADO headers this summer, but it will probably take some time for the db devels to build components on top.

Any Stable Solution this question now ??
