There are any import/export utilities for SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition database? Which edition of SQL Server 2005 can do this?
Or we must use publication/subscription to transfer data to the mobile database?
Thank you for your help!
Hi,
I was wondering if someone could help me as this is a bit of a puzzle.
I have created a database using a password, the create table scripts are executed successfully using the connection string however when I try and use the same connection string to insert some data into the database an error is produced, with the following message 'The specified password does not match the database password'.
I have opened the database using the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio and provide the password and I can access the database without a problem.
When the connection object is first instantiated all the Connection String property, the connStr variable and the modifiedConnStr are all correct (by this I mean that the data source and the password are present). However when the connection object is accessed again the Connection String property and the connStr variable are both set incorrectly (by this I mean that the password= section of the string is missing) however the modifiedConnStr is set correctly (by this I mean that the password= section is present in the string).
The connection object does not get set in between creating and accessing the connection object.
I have resorted to using no password, however I really need to be able to use a password.
Here is a copy of the connection string I am using (Copied directly from the quick watch window):
"Data Source = '\Program Files\Application\DataBase\MyDatabase.sdf'; password="Pa55word";"
I am sorry this a little long winded however I would like to provide as much information as possible. I hope someone can help me with this problem.
Thank you for reading.

Hi:
When I try and connecto to SQL CE I always get an invalid operation exception. I"m afraid that I did not follow the proper install for Orcas Beta 2. I can't remember if I was supposed to uninstall SQL Mobile 2005 first or not.
All I know is when I try and use my SQL CE I can't connecto to a DB / sdf file ?
Any help would be appreciated I"m just starting to use SQL CE.
thanks

After some weeks evaluating tools and platforms for developing an application, I decided to move to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. Everything was fine till last night, when after creating my tables, I needed to populate them. I tried to find the Import and Export Data Wizard that SQL Server 7.0 and 2000 used to have, but great was my surprise when I found - in this forum - a post that said that it's not available in the Express Edition.
I'll have to move back in time (what I hate) to remember the way BCP worked. Can somebody post some examples to not start from zero ? Does anybody know a third party visual tool that can import/export data from text files to a SQL Server DB via ODBC ?
What's the reason it was not included in the EE ?
THanks !
SQL Mobile database seems to not provide import/export utilities.
I think using Publication/Subscription is one of the solution, is it right?
Also, besides typing insert statement manually, there are any other ways to transform data to the SQL Mobile database?

I have written following code in my application
I just want to display all the data of a Single table into a Data Grid, I know that we can drag and drop the table on to a form and datagrid is generated, but here I want to retrive those values through my code, how should i do that
I am getting following errors while running the program
Error 1) Error No. 28037, MS SQL Server 2005 Evrywhere Edition
Error: A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information see HRESULT
Error 2) Error No. 0, SQL Server 2005 Evrywhere Edition ADO.Net Data Provider

Can anybody please tell me, where I went wrong ??? In this code anywhere else????

Hello Everybody
I want to create SQL server 2005 mobile database on desktop programmatically with some inital data for my application and load it into device. We can create database only in VS2005 server explorer or SQL server 2005 application.
Anybody having this solution for this prob.

Hi forum readers,
we are working on a release 2.0 mobile solution right now. In our version 1.0 we did not have to worry about memory issues as our application was the only application running on our target devices (e.g. T-Mobile MDA Compact II Pocket PCs, WM2005).
Now we need to share the available memory with others. As our application relies on its SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition database we are wondering about memory usage of that server.
We know that a Pocket PC divides its memory into Storage and Program. If our application uses a 5 MB database and 1.5 MB for DLLs and it's exe-file. These files reside in the storage space when not loaded. When the application starts up it is loaded in the program memory. What happens to the 5 MB database file? Is is loaded into Program memory as well? Are only portions of that file loaded? Or is nothing loaded at all?
Does anyone have a deeper insight into that server an can answer my questions.
Best regards,
Tobias

Hi,
I am using SQLCE and VS 2005 to create a database named "student.sdf" (inside my projects folder, of course). When click on the button, it will test for connection of database.
Everytimes I run the program, it will pop up an error message "The database file cannot be found. Check the path to the database. [File name = .student.sdf]". How do I fix it?

how do I transform sql server mobile edition database to sqlce2.0 format?
I have a database with sql server mobile edtion , and I want to depoly application to ppc with .net cf1.0, so , I must change format from sqlce3.0 to sqlce2.0.
Please.
Executing a select query with left outer joins etc takes .53 seconds to execute on sqlce 2.0.
Same query on sql 2005 mobile ed. takes 11 minutes .
on database having same data.
Sample query
SELECT routes.location,routes.equipment_type, routes.contract_type,
routes.maintenance_interval,routes.bank_description,routes.Unit_Des,
routes.Unit_no,max(task_last_completed.date_completed)as date1,min(case when

Is here any way to update Mobile database from command-line program that ie;
reads sql commands from text file, run query analyzer, insert readed data to SQL tab and deploy these commands?
Or any other way to do this?
Good day,
I am writing an application using VB.Net 2005 for the Windows CE 5.0 device and it is connecting to a SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Database.
The trouble I'm having is establishing a connection to a SQL Server Mobile database on the device.
Here is the code I am using:
Code Snippet
Public gConnectionString As String = "Data Source=Program FilesMobAppMobDB.sdf;Persist Security Info=False;"
Code Snippet
Imports System.Data.SqlServerCe
Public Class DBManager
Public Shared gSQLCEConnection As SqlCeConnection
Public Shared Function OpenDB() As Boolean
If gSQLCEConnection IsNot Nothing Then
Throw New InvalidOperationException("Connection already open.")
End If
gSQLCEConnection = New SqlCeConnection(gConnectionString)
Try
gSQLCEConnection.Open() 'Error occurs here
Return True
Catch ex As SqlCeException
MsgBox(ex.Message & vbCrLf & ex.HResult & vbCrLf & ex.NativeError & vbCrLf & ex.Source)
Return False
End Try
End Function
In the immediate window I recieve the following messages:
A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
A first chance exception of type 'System.UnauthorizedAccessException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
A first chance exception of type 'System.UnauthorizedAccessException' occurred in mscorlib.dll

A first chance exception of type 'System.UnauthorizedAccessException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
A first chance exception of type 'System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeException' occurred in System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll
I believe that the first few lines are caused by the icons/pictures that I have included with my app, but the SqlCeException line occurs when the connection to the .SDF file is trying to be established.
Here is the exception output:
Message: "" (Blank)
HResult: -2147024882
NativeError: 0
Source: SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition ADO.NET Data Provider
Programs under Remove Programs on the PDA are:

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact...
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact...
Microsoft SQLCE 2.0
Microsoft SQLCE 2.0 Dev
Any ideas on what could be stopping this connection from being established? It was working before but all of a sudden just stopped. I have warm booted, cold booted, and rebuilt with no luck and also checked that SQL Query Analyzer is not running on the PDA and that the connection string is valid.
The call to OpenDB occurs in the form_load of the startup object.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I already have SQL Express Edition... i installed SQL 2005 Mobile Edition..
how could i connect to the mobile edition so i can design my DB?
Hi,
I have a central database server that is runnning on SQL 2005 standard edition and Windows server 2003 standard as OS.
I realise that I can use SQL statements to encrypt and decrypt the data inside the standard SQL.
However, how do I read and write the data via an web application coded in C#.net and is also running on the same machine?
Another issue is, I need to replicate some of the data in this SQL standard over to a SQL mobile running on a mobile device running on Windows CE 5.0.
The mobile device also needs to read and write data to the encrypted data via a C#.net application.
Question is, with all these requirements to be met, can I use AES? I know that AES is not available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2000 and I cant find AES in the .net compact framework.
how do i go about ensuring security? how do I ensure that the symmetric key is the same both on the SQL standard and SQL mobile?
thank you.
Hi!.
Is there something like BCP utility in SQL CE?
I need to import (pereodicaly) large ammount of data to my CE database. When tested import on network this take a lot of time. That's why decided to send raw data in ASCII files (because of small size) and to import files to CE database.
Certainly, it's not a problem to write those cli by myself, but it's interesting if someone already did this...
Thanks, Sandr

Should I be able to use a SQL Server Compact Edition sdf file as the data source for the SSIS Import and Export Wizard?
When I select the .net Framework Provider for compact Edition from the data source drop down, I get a message box with "An error occured which the SSIS Wizard was not prepared to handle. Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. (mscorlib) Specified method is not supported. (System.Data.SqlServerCe)"
We have a user with a sdf file that will no longer sync, so we wanted to get her data from sdf file tables into SQL Server tables quickly and easily. Since the SSIS wizard wouldn't work with the sdf data source, we copied SQL Server Mgmt Studio query results into an Excel spreadsheet via the Clipboard, them imported those records with SSIS. But we need a repeatable process in case this happens in the future.
We tried to reinitialize her merge replication subscription with SQL Server Mgmt studio, and with C# code, but none of that would work.
How many MS data provider options are available for SQL Server compact edition? I see ".Net Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition" in the SSIS data source drop down, but shouldn't I also see an OLE-DB Provider for SQL Server Compact Edition?
This is all on my XP workstation where I can successfully write C# code for SQL Server Compact data access with Assembly = System.Data.SqlServerCe = C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPublicAssembliesSystem.Data.SqlServerCe.dll. So I think I have the proper tools installed.
Thanks.
Hi, everyone! I have a small problem.
It consists in:
1. I'm trying to connect to database on my Pocket PC within Visual Studio 2005 (C#)
Connection string looks like this:
SqlCeConnection1.ConnectionString = "data source = '\storage card\mobiluser.sdf'";
But when i'm deploying it to Pocket PC the error "An error message cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found" appears.
2. When I'm doing te same on Pocket PC Emulator everything is normal.
Off course, I have the .sdf file on Pocket PC which is placed to Storage Card into root directory.
If anyone knows where I get a mistake, help me please!
Thanks for your help!
