Hey Everybody,

I am running a C#code that creates a database called Mobile.sdf

SqlCeEngine engine = new SqlCeEngine ("Data Source = Mobile.sdf");
engine.CreateDatabase ();

Now I am not able to locate the actual database on my PC. Where will
this be stored?

Thanks
Sats
 
Using that string it should be in the root folder on your device "\". If you
want to create it in a specific place you must use a full path - Windows CE
has no concept of current directory.

Hi Sats,

Look in your root '/', aka "My Device". If you would like to create it
in a specific location, just specify it:

SqlCeEngine engine = new SqlCeEngine(@"Data Source = '\Program
Files\DeviceApplication1\Mobile.sdf'");

hth,
Nino
