I made application (using .NET) to transfer data using PDA via GPRS and then upload data to database server. The data not update old data but make new insert new data to database server.
If we use USB to synchronize data from PDA to database server, we can use merge replication. But i still confused how to synchronize data, if we transfer data from PDA via GPRS, then insert to database server???

I have some questions about the MSDN article "Step by Step: Developing a SQL Mobile Application with Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005" (it is msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Aa454892.aspx).
Everything works good up to Exercise 3: Synchronizing Data Between Any Backend Database and SQL Mobile Database Using a Web Service. It is said that we need a DataService.asmx file to be enetered into "Web reference name". Unfortunately I can't find the HOL302_SQL_Mobile to download and install this file. Where I can find this file?
Can anyone tell me how can I do such a replication(C#)?
How can I synchronise data from mobile device to SQL Server using GPRS connection? (I only know replicating over USB).
I want to synchronize my database on Pocket PC / The Emulator that use WM5 and SQLCE3, but the synchronize is doesn't use IIS as the bridge, but i want to use ActiveSync as the synchronizer bridge. The rule like this. 1. Have database on Pocket PC. 2. Have application on Desktop PC. 3. When device or emulater placed on cradle, then the database automaticaly synchronized with database server on desktop pc.
Why I want to use ActiveSync as synchronizer. 1. I have the Pocket PC cradle. So my device can synchronized using ActiveSync. 2. I have internet connection on Desktop PC. So why i must pay more for GPRS if i only need to synchronize my device with my desktop pc.
I want to create an application for home users which runs on their mobile device (smartphone) and their desktop PC and keeps the data synchronized between them. On their desktop I want to run either SSCE or SSExpress. There are so many options in the SSCE literature, which options should I use? How do I synchronize the data? The literature has so many options I don't know where to start.
Dear All, i have a question abt winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. i am using VB.net of Visual Studio 2005 My platform is using a PDA with winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. The Host program is using dbf files on desktop side.
I got a problem of how to sync / read the sql CE data from a windows application.
so, i wanna ask,
1. any method to access the data from winCE data by windows application? or can i convert the sdf file to windows readable files? or any others?
2. Can i use a MDB to sync with SQL server CE? can i synchronize the mobile device which has a SQL Server CE database with the Access database on the desktop?
last question, 3. is that windows CE .net 4.2 not support pocket access (cdb) anymore?
What is the easiest way to synchronize all data and database objects between my development machine and hosting server? Is there any SSIS free script I can use?
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.
I'm developing an application that need to create everyday information to be stored in a SQL Mobile Database.
The SQL Mobile database will have:
Last schema from tables (in SQL Server database); Last information in the tables;
I don't want to copy all the tables from SQL Server database than this mecanism should give me the way to choose the tables.
I have been reading about the SqlCeReplication but I don't undestand what is InternetUrl property. The SQL Mobile database is created in the PC and after is copy to the the Mobile Device. How can I avoid the InternetURL property?

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 ?
To test synchronization with this tier I do the following:
1. Update data on SrvA
2. Push changes to SrvB (there are transactions that replicated)
3. Run RMO Merge Agent (.NET application) on Client and get messsage "No data needed to be merged", although there were changes made on publisher SrvA and SrvB
I saw the thread where similar problem have been discussed (http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=664153&SiteID=17). The sugestion there was to create subscription using wizard rather then T-SQL script. But all my clients are remote and have only HTTPS connection to the IIS over 443. And in the MSDN there was the script that I used to create pull subscription for web synchronization.
Guys, HELP! I almost gave up - do not see the reason for the case in the documentation, settings and code.
Hi all. I have a client that request his system's db to be installed at his HQ, and another db installed at webhosting company. And he want both data to have the same data, and the db at the HQ will act as a backup. I could not modify the code to save data at both db, this is because there will be a huge modification. And this is the first time that I deal with data synchronize, so I need advise on this issue. All advise will be must appreciated, 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
Hi all, Thanks in advance, I have to transfer data from sql express 2005 to sql mobile(.sdf).
Actually i have a sql server express 2005 (sqlee) in laptop... and the .sdf (sqlce) handheld device (ppc) that has been connected by activesync.
Can you please make it clear for my following questions? 1. Is it possible to write a query like " insert into ....sdf select from...sqlexp...." between 2 servers...? 2. Is there any copy command like a BULKCOPY .. to insert all records to .sdf (sqlce) from sql server express?
(or) 3. Is it correct to create a smart device application (CF 2.0) to transfer data between sql express and .sdf by using active sync...?
i have a small problem with this code, it cann't save changes on Datatable to the database SQL Server Mobile ..
the execution work succesfully but without changes in the database !
here is the code, please try to help :

anyway, on the 5th exercise wherein i'm supposed to add a new data connection through the server explorer.. when i chose the option of adding a new data source and was prompted to select a data source i couldnt find the Microsoft SQL Server Mobile Edition data source..
is there anything else that i need to download in order to have that data source?
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?
Code Snippet
Imports System.Data.SqlServerCe
Public Class loginForm
Private _conn As SqlCeConnection
Private Sub ButtonLogin_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ButtonLogin.Click
_conn = New SqlCeConnection("Data Source =.student.sdf")
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.
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.
I was using Visual Studio 2003 and SQL Server CE 2.0 for C# mobile applications. The .sdf database were created in the emulator or in the mobile device itself using Query Analizer.
The application developed need some initial data to run, and this data is obtained executing one service that reads a postgree database, and insert the data in the SQL CE database of the mobile device. But, given the size of the database (maybe 10.000 rows), it tooks too much time (sometimes 6 hours).
Now we are migrating to Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition.
I want to know if its possible to create the .sdf database and load the data into this database on the desktop. Maybe through the execution of a .sql script, or through a service executed on the desktop.
After this, its just upload de .sdf file to the mobile device.
After creating mobile database into sql server 2005 management studio, how to insert the records from sql server 2005 management studio into and mobile database from excel file?
We are in need of some help around the use of SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition.
The problem comes in when we have to import a large list of equipment ID€™s into the database.
The way that things work today is that the database only runs on the handheld computer, so we are having to process a large amount of data on the handheld therefore taking a lot of time.
If there were a way to have a €œseed€? database on the server side (running on Windows Server 2003 or similar) and import all of this data on the server side it would be more efficient and require less time.
Once the data was imported on the server side we can simply transfer this seed database down to the handheld
Could you please throw some light on the above queries.
