I want to read .dbf file on Windows Mobile 5.0 device (Windows CE based devices in general).

Basically, I need to convert .dbf file to .sdf file & then use .sdf in my application.
The only reason for this conversion requirement is the size of the .dbf file.
I don't need all the fields of .dbf file but only a few specific fields of the records.

I can use C# orVB.NET or any native language if that is required.

Any help is much appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Prophet

Guineu is a runtime library that executes FoxPro code on Windows Mobile including accessing DBF files. In addition you can use it on the desktop to read from DBF files and write to SDF files. The Guineu runtime library is accessible from .NET, as well, if you don't want to use FoxPro.

If your DBF file is in FoxPro/dBase/Clipper format (it probably is), then CodeBase will work for you.
