MSDN just published my and fellow MVP Chris Forsberg's latest white papers. The two papers contain full source code for supporting a field service operation based on the fictitious company Northwind Traders. The solution supports both the Windows Mobile 2003-based Pocket PCs and the Windows Mobile 2003-based Smartphones platform.
"The sample solutions will address the needs of the fictitious company Northwind Traders. A sample database containing customers, products, employees, orders, suppliers, shippers, and related tables is shipped with Microsoft Access and Microsoft SQL Server. Northwind Traders will be provided with a mobile solution, targeting Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs supporting their core business processes. Application features, on both client and server, will be sufficiently complex to cover key .NET Framework and .NET Compact Framework technologies and will illustrate how to meet the primary mobile enterprise application objectives."
