How Can I Access SQL Server Compact Edition With SQL Server Management Studio Express?
Hello,
I just installed SQL Server Compact Edition, since I am considering using it instead of SQL Server Express for a local database in my application. The documentation mentioned that I could use SQL Server Management Studio Express to connect to the Compact Edition and create and manipulate databases.
To try to connect, I run Management Studio and bring up the "Connect to Server" dialog. Unfortunately, the pull-down list of "Server name"s does not include the SQL Server Compact Edition server. I do not know how to type in the server name manually, so I cannot connect.
To install Compact Edition, I downloaded it and ran "SQLServerCE31-EN.msi". This installed, and I assume registered, a number of DLLs in "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server Compact Editionv3.1".
Is there perhaps an additional step that I left out to complete the installation?
Might I need an upgrade to some other components? My Management Studio Version is:
- Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 9.00.2047.00
I would appreciate any help you can provide.
Thank you,
WTW

Compact Edition V3.5 And SQL Server Management Studio
Is it possible to use SQL Server Compact Edition v3.5 with SQL Server Management Studio? When I attempt to connect to a 3.5 database I get the following error: "You are trying to access an older version of a SQL Server Compact Edition Database..." I am using v3.5 beta 2. If not, is there anything out there that provides a Query Analyzer like interface for viewing data that works with v3.5? Thanks.

SQL Compact Edition 3.5 Vs. SQL Server Management Studio 2008, FileNotFoundException Microsoft.SqlServerCe.ManagementUI
Hi,I'm having an exception below when i tried to connect to SQL Server Compact Edition from SQL Server Management Studio (10.0.1075.23 ((SQL_PreRelease).071108-1357 )).I downloaded and installed the SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 from this link below :http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=38ed2670-a70a-43b3-87f3-7ab67b56cbf2&displaylang=enAnd I downloaded and installed the SQL Server 2008 Development edition from this link below :http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=104963It seems that the SQL Server 2008 Development edition comes with the these 2 SQL CE below :- Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP1 Beta ENU. Product Version: 3.5.5608.0.- Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP1 Beta Management Tools ENU. Product Version: 3.5.5608.0I tried to uninstalled these 2 and re-install the SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 Files, but it didn't help.Currently I'm uninstalling SQL Server 2008 because the command prompt installation instruction page could not be found in the books online, so i'm trying my luck to uninstall SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 and reinstall the whole SQL Server 2008.

Since i upgraded the database into 3.5, i was not able to open it anymore using SQL Express 2005 Query Designer in the VS 2008 is just like the sql view query designer which is not as good as sql management studio. I'm reminiscing the good old days with query analyzer Any advice to resolve this issue? Thanks in advance Steps :1. Choose Database : SQL Server Compact Edition2.

Using SQL Server Management Studio Tools To Manage Dbs On SQL Server Express Edition
Hopefully a simple question: Is it possible to use Maintenance Plans created on SQL Server Management Studio (installed as part of an instance of SQL Server 2005 Standard Ed.) to back up databases running on an instance of SQL Server Express Edition with Advanced Services? I don't need directions, just whether or not it is permitted. I've been able to create the plans including establishing connections to from SSMS to the the SQL Express instance, but they keep erroring out. I just need to know if this is actually permitted since Maintenance Plans are not available on Management Studio Express Edition. Thank you in advance for your help.

SQL Server CE And SQL Server Management Studio Express Edition Yet Again
When I try to open a CE database from SSMSEE, I get the dreaded "You are trying to access an older version of a SQL Server Compact Edition database" error, with "Db version = 3505053, Requested version = 3004180." I am using what I believe to be the latest version of SSCE (3.5) and the latest version of SSMSEE (2005 SP2, Help|About reports the version as 9.00.3042.00). The database is created without error, compacted, repaired, and so forth, with no change to the error. Do I need to install or reinstall something, and if so what? Thanks.

I had a word with one of the guys in the office and he said the only way he's ever been able to get round this is by flattening the entire PC and starting again. Obviously I want to avoid that!

SS Compact Edition 3.1 And Visual Studio Express.
Hello, I have a SQL Server CE 3.1 database, which I want to connect to. Browsing through the documentation, It's not clear to me which tools to use for this. I have installed VS 2005 express edition (with sp1), but it can't connect to .sdf and version VS 2008 only connects to SS CE 3.5. The tools installation file ssce31vstools-ENU.exe file doesn't install on express edition it seems, as I get an error message, that the patch is not valide. I also installed the SS Management studio, but it doesn't seem to be able to handle .sdf. Am I missing something obvious here? I am simply trying to access and modify a SS CE 3.1 databse... Thanks for the help Christophe Bouhier

Server Express, Management Studio Express, Visual Studio Standard, And An ASP.NET Page....
I believe I'm missing something as far as my configuration goes...I'm new to working with SQL server and the databinding I'm trying to do. I have an ASP.NET page that has a radio button list box which I have databound to a database served up by SQL Express I'm having a lot of problems with connections... I was going to enumerate the behavior under each configuration (local only, remote tcp/ip only, remote pipes only, remote both), but I've realized that it is just flaky. Sometimes I can connect to the db with SQL Studio express, sometimes not. Sometimes I can add new tables and edit tables, sometimes not. Sometimes I can create a new connection when trying to databind from within Visual Studio, and sometimes not (sometimes I can't even connect, other times, I can connect initially but when I build a query through the designer it then has problems). Lastly, sometimes the ASP.NET page works correctly and sometimes not. This all seems to be mostly independent of how I configure SQL Server as far as what kinds of connections are allowed. I thought there was a pattern, but as I tested it more rigorously I found there wasn't. What I would like to do is be connected to the same DB with Visual Studio and SQL Studio, edit the DB as I wish, databind to it, and test my ASP.NET page, all without needing to jump through a bunch of hoops (although right now I wouldn't even know what those hoops are...it's just a shot in the dark as to what will work). It's all quite maddening and any help would be appreciated.

I have a .Net application that uses an Access database to store data. I want to create a windows mobile application for collecting the data and syncing with the PC application. Is the 3.5 compact edition the way to go? How do I get started? I don't even know how to open the interface for the database. I'm certainly no newbie to programming, but the SQL Server and Windows Mobile stuff is like starting all over in some ways.

MS SQL Server 2005 Compact Vs. Express Edition?
Hi. I am in the process of moving my sql server 2000 DB to a stand-alone box. I am also considering upgrading to sql server 2005 (at this point, the DB isn't too complex) and was just on the MS site reading over my options. I was hoping to get some "real world" feedback about the differences between the compact and express editions. Are there any major drawbacks to either? The site I am currently working with is not too complex - only one database server - but will be growing significanly over the next year. I appreciate your help. thanks!

However i recently started playing around with the SQL Server Management Studio Express program. When i attach my database to Management Studio, and try to run my program it crashes.

Updating To SQL Server Management Studio Developer Edition Is Not Working
I got VS Pro which came with SQL Server Management Studio Developer Edition. Very exciting! However, when I go to update from SQL Server Management Studio Express to Dev Edition it says that there are tools / components already installed. I completely uninstalled everything having to do with SQL Server from my machine and tried again. It still says that the tools / components are installed. I see that there are still several instances of SQL Server still on my machine. So I tried reinstalling Express again. However, now the Configuration Manager has a snap-in that won't start. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

SQL Server Management Studio Express, Database Explorer In Visual Web Developer Express...which To Use???
When I downloaded/started using Visual Web Developer I was under the impression that I needed to install SQL Server Management Studio Express in order to create/manage databases, and to provide the engine to access the data. Since then I have found tutorials and have successfully created/used databases solely from within Visual Web Developer. I'm assuming that Visual Web Developer includes a database engine, much like the webserver that is included. (This is an awesome thing). When I tried to upload my web application with database to my production server, the database would not work, it started working after I installed SQL Server Management Studio Express on the server. Is it my understanding that you need SQL Server Management Studio Express if you do not have Visual Web Developer Express installed in order to provide the data access engine? Also, I am unable to "attach" my Visual Web Developer Express created database to SQL Server Management Studio Express. Are there any posts that provide more information about this topic? The only reason I'm asking is that I have extra whitespace on the end of my text fields, and I thought ANSI_PADDING was turned on. I do not see the option in Visual Web Developer Express, but have found it in SQL Server Management Studio Express.

How To Configure SQL Server Management Studio Express To Allow Doing Non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 From VB 2005 Express?
Hi all, For the first time, I want to set up the configuration of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to allow me in doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. The SSMSE and VB 2005 Express are in my Windows XP Pro PC that is part of our NT 4 LAN System in our office. I read the article "How to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remotre connections" in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277/ about (i) "Enable remote connections for SQL Server 2005 Express", (ii) Enable the SQL Server Browser service", (iii) Create exception in Windows Firewall, and (iv) Create an exception for the SQL Server Browser service in Windows Firewall. I entered the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration and I could not decide what options I should take for doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. I have the following questions on the page of "Minimize SQL Server 2005 Surface Area": (1) I saw "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]". I clicked on [change computer] and I saw the following: Select Computer The Surface Area Configuration of this surface area of this computer or a remote computer. Specify a computer to configure: O Local computer O Remote computer Should I choose the "Local computer" or the "Remote computer" option? (2) Below the "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]", I clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Service and Connections", Select a component and then configure its services and connections: |-| SQLEXPRESS |-| Database Engine Service I picked => Remote Connection On the right-hand side, there are: O Local connections only O Local and remorte connections O Using TCP/IP O Using named pipes only O Using both TCP/IP and named pipes Should I choose O Local and remorte connections and O Using named pipes only?

Import Existing Database Into SQL SERVER EXPRESS Management Studio Express
Hi, I am a newbie so i apologies beforehand for any mistakes i make on this forum. Anyway, i created an asp.net website using the MS Visual Web developer tool. This has a couple of SQL SERVER databases within it. I then latervinstalled the SQL SERVER management studio express in order to manage the SQL SERVER DBs that i had as part of my website but they do not appear within the management studio db list. As this is the express version, is there anyway of importing the existing SQL SERVER dbs that i have to the management studio so i can manage them from there? Regards, Shuja.

Creating A SQL Server 2000 Compatible .BAK File From SQL Server Management Studio Express
Hi,My webhost (1and1) is running SQL Server 2000 and their web tool supports the import of .bak files. However, when I try to import my .bak files created in SQL Server Management Studio Express I get the following error:"The backed-up database has on-disk structure version 611. The server supports version 539 and cannot restore or upgrade this database. RESTORE FILELIST is terminating abnormally."I have Googled this error and learnt that 2005 .bak files are not compatible with 2000 .bak files. I'm just wondering if there are any work arounds to this or alternative tools that I can create 2000 compatible .bak files from from 2000/2005 .mdf files.Thanks in advance.

Can't Connect To SQL 2005 Express With SQL Server Management Studio Express
I've seen the following error posted when people try to connect to their server via their applications but didn't see anyone having problems when trying to connect with SQL Server Management Studio Express. Am I missing something here? This is the error:<<An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)>>The server is not remote so I don't see why I need to enable remote connection. I am also using the default connection settings.

Why Can't I See My Web Developer Express Database From SQL Server Management Studio Express?
Hi, I'm completely new to SQL Server and ASP.NET, so please bear with me on my learning curve! I've installed Visual Web Developer Express and SQL Server Express (on the same PC). I then used Web Developer Express to successfully create a new database with a couple of tables in it. So far so good. I then installed SQL Server Management Studio Express on the same PC and tried to connect to my new database. The connection to the SQL Server instance appears to work OK (using Windows Authentication) but I can't see the database I previously created. All I can see are the System Databases. Does anyone know what the solution might be?

Connecting VB Express Files To SQL Server Management Studio Express
Really confused ... I created 2 tables in a VB Express program (which went well). Problem is that I can't see/find those tables with MSME. I don't really understand how to connect the MSME to where the tables are. I created the tables under My DocumentsData and they are DBapp.mdf + DBapp_log.LDF and the tables are Items and Preferences. The VB application can "see" the tables OK. Do I need to move the tables to C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSQL.1MSQLDATA (like the Adventureworks installation which I haven't done) or what? Please help a newbie Thanks George

How Can I Install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition's Management Studio On A Desktop Machine?
I have installed Visual Studio 2005 Prof Edition on a Vista machine and SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on a Windows 2000 server. They will be used as a development environment for us. As we need to management the SQL Server 2005, we would like to install the 2005 Developer SSMS on the Vista machine such that we can manage the SQL Server 2005 developer instance installed on that Win2k machine. However, the system does not allow us to do it. We have the express edition autoamtically installed while we installed the Vistual Studio. Is there any workaround that i can still install the 2005 developer SSMS without uninstall the sql server 2005 Xpress version? Or, I have to uninstall the Xpress version before i can install the 2005 developer's SSMS? Please help!

Download Of Sql Server Management Studio Express For Sql Server 2008
I just upgraded my Sql Server to 2008 and I was hoping that the link found in this page would provide the download to SSMSE for Sql Server 2008, but it redirects me to 2005 version. I don't any instances running with Sql Server 2005 that I could access through SSMSE 2005, so I can't use it. Does anyone have the link for download to SSMSE 2008? Or should I downgrade? And if, how can I downgrade? Thank you very much, sorry by my misspellings.

Setting Back Up Sql Server Express And The Sql Server Management Studio
I am having a nightmare of a time with my Sql Server 2005 Express. My computer crashed on Friday the 13th - of course. I saved all my files onto another drive and wiped out C: I brought everything back in but I started a new file for my Visual Basic projects. After asking questions I found this was a major no-no So I brought my original folder back in. This solved some of my problems I was having with Visual Studio and Visual Web, but I am continuing to have problems with Sql Server. I will explain these two problem they may be related, I don't know. When I run my Visual Website on a server I get this message: An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file(then my file name)failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share. And my second problem is when I attempt to run Sql Server Management Studio Express I get this error message: There is no editor available for (then my file name) .mdf Make sure the application for file type(.mdf)is installed.

Hi all, In the last one and half years, I used the Northwind Database in SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to learn the programming of SqlConnections, Data sources, Database Exploere, ADO.NET 2.0, etc. via VB 2005 Express. The Northwind Database in my SSMSE got lost very often, but I was not aware of it. How can I know where the Northwind Database is used or processed by my VB 2005 Express projects that were the examples of some tutorial books or my trial projects? How can I release the Northwind Database back to my SSMSE from the VB 2005 Express projects? Please help and advise. Thanks in advance, Scott Chang
