Hi,

we have some issues with SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5. We want to deploy a local database with our application. First of all, is it possible to do that without the sql serrver compact edition explicitly being installed as described in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 80%29.aspx ("Private File–Based Deployment"). - What I want to do is just deploy the said dlls with my application.

When I try to do this (copy the dlls in the same directory as my application / the dbexpress driver, I get the error: "Provider not registered".

Can you help me out here?
Thanks
Sebastian

You should execute regsvr32 sqlceoledb35.dll.
