Hello,
I'm killing myself trying to write what should be for most a very simple windows mobile 2003 application.
I keep running into the limitations of the compact framework however and I may just shoot myself before this is over.
My latest problem is that everything I read on MSDN and anywhere else, tells me that the objects I use to handle sql server ce databases are in the System.Data.SqlServerCE namespace and when I try to Import that namespace it tells me that it can't find it.
I don't think I have to have any aditional sdk apart from the windows mobile 2003 sdk since sqlserver ce is supposedly part of the .net compact framework.
I have been all over MSDN (which I'm sure anyone reading this knows is a clusterd up mess of a massive amount of unreachable information) and google is tired of seeing me at this point. The only thing I keep finding is that I should use the methods in SqlServerCE and it's not freekin there lol
I know i'm not doing something rite so if anyone knows what thay may be I would greatly apriciate any help at all.
Thank you.
 
Sorry I posted such a newb question here.
I finaly realized that what everything was saying was "add a reference" not Import.
Added a reference and now its fine.
again sorry for the post.
