title: Windows Phone 7 databases
body: <p>i am new to windows phone 7 and im just looking for some information in regards to databases.</p>
  
  <p>I understand that we can use SQLce to store a database, i've got some idea on how to create one, at the moment i was wondering how to have prepopulated data when a app is loaded?, ive heard about sqlmetal is that a way of creating a database and addinbf data?</p>
  
  <p>Also When i have a database on a mircosoft sql server, is it possible for SQLce and SQL server to pass data between each other i.e hold the same database with same data?</p>
  
  <p>Also i believe that i must have a webservice for the phone to connect to the webserver how would i apporach this? would i use httprequest to connect to the webservice then the webservice connect/interact with the webserver what code would the webservice be written in?</p>
  
  <p>Any links would be a great help</p>
  
  <p>Sorry if its long winded </p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
