I want to create an application for airlines booking but I can't find any books about connecting my application to a database. Do you know of any books or materials about this?

The application is for windows mobile 6 and I just need an example on how the connection between the database and the application is done, or a book about this. I mention that I use sql manager studio 2008 for the database and visual studio 2008 sp1 for aplication development. Your help will be very appriciated.

Thanks for your time,

yours Benn Adams

Your best bet for a Windows Mobile application is not to connect to a database directly but to instead connect to a web service (which connects to the database on the backend).
I'll leave security and authentication for you to sort it out.
