Access for PPC

My neighbor has an air conditioning business with a nice little access service call database. He wants to carry it around on his PPC - any ideas on the best software to use for this?

I've heard that data on the run is a good way to read MS access files. You may want to download the trial.

Personally I'm a BIG fan of Kaionesoft's SprintDBpro.
SprintDBpro is available as both a ppc and desktop download is relatively cheap and pretty easy to use (It has to be for me to be able to use it! ), a very indepth tutorial is available on the website along with loads of example databases free for download.
SprintDBpro is quite powerful supporting SQL statements, macros, queries and variable programming.
I've downloaded and experimented with a number of PPC database programs, but Sprintdbpro is the best/easiest I've worked with. The developer is available for support and questions, although you'd need to allow at least 24hrs for a reply and have to break the question down in to small chunks (he grubbled when I sent an 8 page question )
SprintDBpro is available as a free 15 day download from the link at the top of the page.
Let us know what you think and how you get on.
