    <p>OK - I have worded this search 40 different ways and I seem to be lost here.</p> <p>Every example I find seems so happy that you can easily drag and drop a datagrid and let the user fill it in -- then they stop! I know how to do everything I am asking through LINQ. That obviously won't translate here. I really should have learned ADO.NET first, <strong>then</strong> LINQ, but NOoooo...</p> <p>I need to know how to do the following in .NETCF (Windows Mobile 5) using a SQL CE database on the device.</p> <ol> <li><p>Add a new record and populate some or all of the fields with data I supply. I don't need to add a record to a datagrid - sometimes the user will not even see the record. How do I add a new record -- put data into it and save it? For example: Create a new delivery record, say, and have the program store the date in one field and a number in another field.</p></li> <li><p>Search for a record, then update data in it. Again, using LINQ I can do this easily -- I cannot for the life of me find any examples of doing it without it. I can find lots of examples of populating a grid of databound fields, letting the user make changes then saving it out. I don't need to do that.</p></li> </ol> <p>Say I need to search for the one record that meets a criteria (customerID=10 and orderID=1234), then when (if) that record is found, update a field in it.</p> <p>Please let me know if you need any more info. I have done a lot of reading and just seem to be missing something!</p> <p>Thanks in advance...</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
