I am new to C# and SQL Server and I have been trying to figure this out for over a week. I did see the thread titled "Adding a database to Visual Studio 2010" but was unable to solve my issue. For some of the suggestions I cannot even find the
breadcrumb trail to enact it.
I am currently taking the course "C# Fundamentals" from Bob Tabor’s site: LearnVisualStudio.NET . I'm on day 8 where we are integrating SQL Server with C#. In Lesson 6 and 7, (havent' gotten past these two) I am having an issue.
In Lesson 6, "Retrieving Data with ADONET 2 in a Connected Scenario (SQL Server Compact Edition) when I go to create the data file I get the error message I typed into the title. I have looked into Microsoft Support, and Stack Overflow, and
have not found a solution that works in either of these locations. Since I work from home on my computer, I do not want to do anything with files or downloads unless I understand what I need to do, because I do not want to lose my job.
Any help would be appreciated.
I do have the following installed on my computer:
Visual Studios 2010 Ultimate (from student site)
SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP1 Query Tools,
SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP2 ENU,
SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP2 x 64 ENU
SQL Server Compact 4.0 SP1 X64 ENU
Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1
I have a 64 bit operating system. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the Ultimate version several times, and tried to repair it, but nothing is working.
