Re: SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Released to Web
It sure would be nice if this worked.
I've been trying to get this stuff since I saw the Channel 9 video on how to use it (probably recorded using beta versions).
After installing the VS upgrade, the tools, the SDK, and the runtime engine; I still can't get anywhere with it. For example, the "Choose Data Source" dialog is supposed to have the CE file as an option, but it doesn't show up.
And when did MS stop allowing you to select/copy the text in a MessageBox? That's really frustrating, especially when an error message is so damn long.
