Hi,
Can anybody let me know if there are ways to programatically track changes made to a SQL SERVER CE table? I am writing a db monitoring tool on SQL server CE which should track any changes made to the table.(Insert update and delete)
We could have done this using triggers on Sql Server 2005. Since triggers are not supported on SQL Server CE, are there any alternate ways to achieve this functionality?
Regards,
Ananth

Dear ppl,
I am writing an application for a device (MDA Pro T-Mobile) having Windows Mobile 5.0 using
-MS .NET Compact Framework 2.0 SP-1
-SQL Mobile 2005.
-VS 2005 .NET
The application uses Merge Replication. The error occurs in the Synchronise() Method of the SqlCeReplication object.
"SQL Server Mobile encountered problems when opening the database."
repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase);
repl.Synchronize();
I don't understand why I am having this error. It does create the database on AddSubscription() method but it is failing opening the database on Synchronise(). I have also tried uninstalling and then reinstalling all the SQL Mobile components in the following order.
-sqlce30.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.repl.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.dev.ENU.wce5.armv4i.cab
However, when i run this application on a device(Dell X50 AXIM) with Pocket PC 2003, it runs fine creating the database and sysnchronising it.
The target platform for the project is Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK.
Does any one have any clue what could be the problem ?
Regards

Hello,
I am developping a non-managed C++ application for PocketPC using a SQL Server mobile database.
The application is compiled for PocketPC 2003 and uses SQL Server Mobile v2. I use Visual Studio 2005. But I need to compile the application for Windows Mobile 5.0 devices. So I installed the WM5 SDK and had the WM5 into my project configuration.
The "ssceoledb.h" which I include incluses the "transact.h" file. But my problem is that this file is only provided with the PocketPC 2003 SDK and not in the WM5 SDK.
So I cannot use the WM5 configuration project with SQL Server. I also tried with the last SQL Server Mobile 2005 (ie v3.0) and the "ssceoledb30.h" also includes "transact.h".
Did I miss something to install ?
Do you know how I can resolve the problem ?
By advance, thank you for any answer.

Hi EveryBody,
I have the following question :
What components of I.S. would I use, for simulating a cursor in SQL like that?
Example of simple cursor :
declare c_CURSOR cursor FOR
SELECT DISTINCT V.CODIGO FROM GB_RELACIONAL.DBO.VISITA V INNER JOIN MEDIDAS_LINEAL_PROMOCION_200604_02 M
ON M.CODIGO_VISITA=V.CODIGO AND M.TIEMPO_ENTRE_vISITAS <> V.TIEMPO_ENTRE_VISITAS
OPEN C_CURSOR
FETCH NEXT FROM C_CURSOR INTO @CODIGO
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS=0
Do various Jobs; Doing Selects, Inserts etc.. using @codigo
FETCH NEXT FROM C_CURSOR INTO @CODIGO
end
CLOSE C_CURSOR
DEALLOCATE C_CURSOR
Then what I need is passing the @codigo in every loop, to other components in I.S., for doing inserts in other related tables.
Then my questions are:
a- What Component i would use for simulating the looping cursor like the example ?
b- How i Store and pass de @codigo to the other I.S. components for doing the selects, inserts?
c- What I.S. components and how would use, for receiving the @codigo ,and doing the corresponding Select , Inserts.. in the related tables , using that variable ( @codigo ) ?
I need an Idea of the I.S. components, configurations, and the flow for doing something like this...
Thank in advance!!
Using MS VS 2005 (incl SQL Server Mobile)
MS Pocket PC 2005 SDK
I am working on a project that builds for Pocket PC on both Mobile 2003 and Mobile 5. The project uses/will use SQL Server Mobile to store local data.
Project created from new with support for both platforms. I include required header files ssceerr30.h and ssceoledb30.h.
Project builds fine in WM2003 configuration, release and debug.
When I build for WM5 the compiler cannot find the header file transact.h. This is included from within ssceoledb30.h. Same as under WM2003.
In WM2003 configuration if I highlight the ssceoledb30.h include in Visual Studio and open the header, it takes me to <Visual Studio dir>SmartDevicesSDKSQL ServerMobilev3.0. I then locate the include for transact.h and do the same, which takes me <Visual Studio dir>SDKPocketPC2003include. The file exists.
If I repeat the above 'browsing' under the WM5 configuration, ssceoledb30.h takes me to a different copy in the WM5 SDK directory. There is no diff between the file here and the other copy used by WM2003. If I attempt to open transact.h - file does not exist.
Fix (which I'm not too sure about, i.e. is it OK?) - If I copy transact.h to the WM5 SDK directory, the project builds.
Why has transact.h disappeared from WM5 SDK?
I can find no ref's to this problem anywhere. Is my installation of the WM5 SDK corrupt? What else could I be missing?
Is there a sample for SQL Server mobile (like the NorthwindOLEDB sample) that comes configured to build for WM5?
Hi folks, I'm new to Windows Mobile progamming, and new to this forum. Apologies in advance if I'm asking a boneheaded question, but I've done searches and can't find anything directly applicable to my problem.
I'm currently walking through the published MS tutorial in setting up an SQL Server 2005 Mobile application that subscribes to a publication on SQL Server 2005 to exchange information.
I've gotten almost all the way through... successfully set up the server components, creating the publication, etc. On the mobile side, I've been able run the cab files to install the SQL Mobile components and to create the project, add the reference to the dll, and instantiate an engine object. It compiles.
The step in the tutorial after that, though, where you specify the data source from the "data" menu, I've got a problem. When I try to use the "new connection" dialog from choosing the data connection, "MS SQL Server Mobile Edition" doesn't show up as a choice. I've tried choosing any of the other combinations, and in teh subsequent "Connection properties" section my database, SQLMobile (as in their sample) is available, but I get an error when I choose it and click OK. Clicking on "Test Connection" gives me a connection successful message.
My guess is that something about the Mobile server side components is not installed correctly on my development machine, but honestly I have no idea how to begin to fix it. Has anyone seen this problem before and know how to resolve it?
Your time and any knowledge sharing is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
-Dana
Folks,
I have a an sql table having 10,000 Rows.
The table has 5 columns. They are S1,S2,S3,S4 and M
I need the best way to calculate the MEDIAN for each row and store it in M. i.e. M=median(S1,S2,S3,S4)
I've come across articles where they've calculated medians on table rows, not table columns. But my requirement involves table columns. I guess transposing the columns into rows and then calculating median should be possible, but if I do that for 10000 rows using a cursor, then it would take a loooooong time.
Please suggest the best way to counter this
Thanx

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

This is a great tutorial and it's a shame one of the more important steps was missed.
In the €œCreate the snapshot user€? section you you find the steps to create the snapshot_agent account. Then in the €œCreate the snapshot folder€? section you find the share and folder permissions. However, at no point do the instructions advise you about adding the snapshot_agent to the SQL Server Logins. The result is that agent cannot perform the initial snapshot but you won't find this out until 50 steps later after Step 10 in the section €œCreate a new subscription".
To get back on track, openthe Object Explorer's Security section and add the snapshot_agent to your logins. Then using the "User Mappings", set an appropriate level for the SQLMobile database role. Once completed you then need to run the agent.
Right-click the SQLMobile publication you created and select "View Snapshot Agent status". From that dialog you can select "Start" to run the agent. When it completes, you can return to the tutorial section "Create a new subscription" and continue with the tutorial.
I am studying the tutorial in SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Books Online, and the topic is Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Mobile. I have got a problem when creating a new subscription after created a new SQL Server Mobile database. And the problem is shown below:
New Subscription Wizard
- Beginning Synchronization (Success)
- Synchronizing Data (100%) (Error)
Messages
* Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not exist, access is denied because the IIS user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect.
HRESULT 0x80004005 (29061)
* 無法完æˆ?作æ¥ã€‚
- Finalizing Synchronization (Stopped)
- Saving Subscription Properties (Stopped)
Before I have met this problem, I have finished all the task. And I can browse the localhost web site by using anonymous account even I use internet explorer or browse the directly in IIS.
Does anyone can solve it?? Thank you very much~~~
I am migrating a pocket PC application from VS 2003 to VS 2005 and a few weeks ago I hit the following problem when replicating
A SQL Mobile DLL could not be loaded. Reinstall SQL Mobile. [ DLL Name=sqlceca30.dll]
Scanning forums for help I saw that other people had had this problem and one
http://www.eggheadcafe.com/aspnet_answers/NETFrameworkCompactFramework/Feb2006/post25814466.asp
suggested that this problem could be circumvented by getting the replication object early and then continuously using the same object for subsequent replications.
I did this and it works a lot better now but ever so often I get another error which is
Native Error 28559 SQL Mobile encountered problems when opening the database
My only option at this point is to stop and start the application which cures the problem.
It is possible to access a Sql Server 2005 Mobile database in a VS2003 application (compact framework) ?
Thanks

I receive error 25123 on my PPC (audiovox 6600) in a reproducable way (usually) with .net 2.0 application that is using SQL CE that I wrote:
Open the application
Connect to the database
Close the applicaton
Re-Open the application
Connect to the database <-- Error occurs
I will also receive the error if my application isn't the first application launched (or very close to the first to launch).
I don't believe it's a memory issue as according to the memory manager I have plenty of memory:
At boot up only start screen items loaded: 18.46 Used 49.89 Free
Launch Resco File Explorer to click EXE: 19.18 Used 49.18 Free
Launch my application (no DB connection): 23.64 Used 44.71 Free
Connect to the DB and do select count(*) from a table with 0 rows: 26.27 Used 42.08 Free
Close the application (this.Close() on the form: 19.38 Used 48.97 Free
Relaunch App and connect to DB receive error: around 38 Used around 30 free
I was unable to reproduce the issue right now while typing this message, the last sets of numbers are from memory, and include other applications that are currently running.
The only way I have to get SQL CE to load again is to soft reset the PPC. If the application is able to connect to SQL CE at least once it is fine up till I close it and re-open the application. So it either connects and runs great, or it can't connect at all.
Any help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

This isn€™t an problem as such, it€™s more of a debate.
If a table needs a number of update triggers which do differing tasks, should these triggers be separated out or encapsulated into one all encompassing trigger. Speaking in terms of performance, it doesn€™t make much of an improvement doing either depending upon the tasks performed. I was wondering in terms of maintenance and best practice etc. My view is that if the triggers do totally differing tasks they should be a trigger each on their own.

Hi all.
Is there a difference with sql replication between sql server 2005 64bit and sql server 2005 32bit?
Both are on a Windows 2003 server. One is 32 bit and the other one is 64 bit.
The first time I set up sql replication (test environment), it was on a 32 bit sql server. This worked fine.
The second time I wanted to set up replication (live environment), it was on a 64 bit sql server. This didn't worked fine.
I can't call the sqlcesa30.dll file on the 64bit server with IIS. So I called the dll via a remote IIS server.
This worked but gave me the following error when calling the following URL:

After seeing this I looked up what ReadWriteDeleteMessageFile could mean. It appeared to be some NTFS acces problem. But when I checked the security settings, it all seemed to be ok.
Has anyone any idea what else to check? Or is sure that I must have done something wrong?
Thanks in advance,

I am looking for a detailed tutorial that explains how to set-up merge replication services for a major project. I have seen all of the claims that SQL Mobile Server 2005 is able to connect to a merge publication with SQL Server 2000. However, where are the tutorials? I must have a proof of concept in a few days to quote this project. Can anybody help with this issue? Thanks!

Hi all,
My apologies in advance for maybe appearing a little novice-like in my questions. That's because I am.
I have a large table containing some 8500 records, migrated from Access to MS SQL. I can access it through VS.NET without any trouble. I've partially built an app for my WM5 device using VS.NET, with nice forms, etc., and want to be able to view the records present in the large table via the forms.
So I need to know the easiest way to acces the data via my WM5 device, using forms designed in VS.NET. I have SQL Server and SQL Server Mobile - can I move the data from the SQL Server tables into a new SQL Server Mobile database?
Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Doing a dev project with VS2005, Windows Mobile 5 on the PocketPC and SQL Server 2005 backend, and want to be using SQL Server Mobile for the device database.
Since I have all the 2005 tools, I'm wondering why, when I do a deploy to the PocketPC emulator, isqlw20 keeps showing up on the device. In my ppc project, I have references to system.data.sqlserverce and system.data.sqlclient.
The dev pc also has installed on it VS6 and VS2003.Net. Any help appreciated.

Hi,
I'm currently doing a application for a smartphone which requires me to replicate the desktop version of a db which was running on SQL 2k. From my reading, it seems that i will need SQL server 2k5 Management studio in order to convert my desktop db to the SQL Mobile version? Is there any other way? For now, i only have the 2k5's management studio express which came with my VS 2k5. I only notice that the express version doesn't allow me to create a SQL mobile db.
Thanks!!

I have recently upgraded to VS 2005, .NET 2.0, and SQL Server 2005 and am trying to upgrade some of my older Pocket PC 2003 apps. I am trying to educate myself but have become a bit confused about how to proceed and was hoping some of the knowledgable people in this group could point me in the right direction.
I have developed several data collection applications that used Pocket Access on the device and very easily sychronized with a custom MS Access database via Active Sync. I am slowly coming to the realization that using SQL Server Mobile will NEVER be that easy (which is a shame). My questions are......
1. If I want to upgrade to SQL Server Mobile, is there any way that I can continue to easily "synchronize" my data with a MS Access database? If so, any suggestion/links as to how to do this would be greatly appreciated!
2. If the above scenario is not possible, what is the best solution for me to create a distributable application that synchronizes into a local database on a computer that DOES NOT have SQL Server installed?
3.) Related to above, is creating a distributable SQL Server Express database the answer? Can I use the built in SQL Server synchronization tools via this scenario?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I'm in the planning stages of a new application and upper mgmt needs this question answered. I am planning to use SQL Mobile 2005 on the hand held devices and SQL Server 2005 as the server. What kind of hardware/configuration do I need that would allow 500 mobile devices to sync at roughly the same time? Any reccomendations on design issues is also welcome.
The business community is all on the same schedule and past experience shows that that do things in large groups. I need to plan for the worst case. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,
