Wireless access to Database from Palm Device?

I was wanting to be able to access a database on my desktop computer (Win98) from my VisorPrism/VisorPhone. Does anyone know of a way to do this easily? I'd like to be able to access it while travelling.

jonecool - I don't know what database application you are looking to access, but one considerstion might be to use PalmVNC which was reviewed here. This gives you remote control access of your desktop with a thin client on the PC and also on the Palm. I've not tried it but it looks pretty slick. Basically your prism becomes a remote screen and keyboard kinda like PC anywhere does. I'm sure it would be slow however. The application is free.
