To start a SQL Anywhere database on a Pocket PC device or emulator, use the File Explorer (in the Programs folder) to navigate to the location where SQL Anywhere is installed, typically Program Files\SQLAny10 or Program Files\Sybase\ASA. Tap dbsrv10 or dbsrv9, use the drop-down lists or the Soft Input Panel to complete the Server Startup Options dialog box, and tap OK.
Your application can start the database automatically by specifying the properties of a Transaction object and issuing a CONNECT statement. For more information, see Chapter 16, “Using Transaction Objects.”
