Moving SQLCE from PPC2002 to PPC2003

We have a VB.NET application running on PPC2002 devices with a SQLCE
database. The customer sets up any new devices by running the CF SP2
installer over activesync, and then copying over and clicking the SQLCE cab
files (sqlce.dev.ppc3.arm.CAB and sqlce.ppc3.arm.CAB)

However, the latest devices the customer has bought are PPC2003 devices, and
when they attempt to install the above SQL files, they get a message to say
they are incompatible with the system.

Is is just a case of installing different SQL Files, or is there more to it?
I have found a suggestion on another forum that the files;
sqlce.dev.wce4.armv4.CAB and sqlce.wce4.armv4.CAB should be used, but the
fact they have WCE rather than PPC in the filename makes me think they're for
the CE.NET environment, rather than PPC.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks,

Ian.
 
The correct files for PPC2003 are indeed the wce4.armv4 version which you'll
find by default in:-
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\CompactFrameworkSDK\v1.0.5000\Windows CE\wce300\armv4

(adjusting the path accordingly if you installed Visual Studio to a
different drive/location)
