 How to copy .cdb to emulator?

How can I convert and copy a .mdb file to a .cdb file on the H/PC Pro
emulator?
Active sync does to the real device but how do we get it into the Emulator?
Using empfile to copy the mdb file does just that, it places the .mdb file
in the emulator object store. Copying the .cdb back from the real device
using Windows Explore converts it back into a .mdb file.

Help please.

In ActiveSync Options|Rules|Conversion Settings. You can set "Device To
Desktop" to No Conversion for Access Databases. Leave the "Desktop To
Device" setting as-is.

 How to copy .cdb to emulator?
Many thanks Rob but...

That worked a treat, I got my .cdb file into the emulator but none of the
tables in it are visible. I copied that file back to the real device and the
tables were still in it, just not accessible in the emulator.
I created a new .cdb file locally using pocket access and that works fine
but I need to be able to upload and download populated databases to and from
the emulator like I can to the real device

any ideas?

 How to copy .cdb to emulator?
I'm replying myself as, after much digging, I have now got ADOCE3.1 working
on my emulator (after ditching Win XP Pro and returning to Win NT4.0) Using
the example given therein (emuldb.ebp) and fixing the numerous bugs therein
I am now able to replicate an access .mdb into a .cdb file.

I'm now about to return to developing my app and I'm wondering...will I be
able to make ADOCE3.1 work on my HPC device????
time will tell
