c# desktop database application

Hi All, I'd like to build a C# organizer application with winforms and some kind of database in the back. Is it possible to build it in a way that will not require some database system installed on each computer that the application will be distributed to. Or it defintely needs either sql server or oledb, etc? Any oppinion will be greately appreciated.

You can just use an MS Access database, which is simply a file so you won't need a server installed on each computer and you can just distribute it with the application. However, you do need the Access driver installed, but I am pretty sure this comes with windows. ;P Wacky waving inflateable arm flailing tube man! - Family Guy

HI, use SQLite oder firebird embedded instead of Jet 4.0 (Access). 'A programmer is just a tool which converts caffeine into code'
