with vb.net you should not really have to write any networking code. Just try to access the sql server the normal way- that is of course if it is on the same network as the palm pilot or if they are both connected to the internet.

If you want to use web application(or web service) than it may not need to use any networking code as web uses web browser and HTTP protocol.
If you want to have regular app installed on your PPC and want to connect to network resources. Two options: 1. Install SQL CE on ppc and creating server SQL DB replication .. hard or not too hard 2. Use Web Service through the network yes, wireless enabled network and part of network account.
You may have more help from MS MSDN Mobile Developing section I guess..
