Windows CE and dbnetlib.dll issue trying to connect to SQL Server
Hi all,
I am working on an application that runs on a hand scanner running Windows CE.
I need to connect to an SQL server database on a network. I have all the code in place, but when I run the application and try to connect to the database, I get the following error:
System.MissingMethodExcept ion: Can't find PInvoke DLL 'dbnetlib.dll'.
I have added this file to the output project for the application but it makes no difference.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi alexey_gusev,
The app contains a list of values to be displayed to the user from and SQL CE database hosted on the scanner.
That list can be updated by clicking a button, which will then connect to an SQL server database on a server, download records to a datatable, then loop through and insert those records into the SQL CE database.
When I click to update the list, I get the error.
Thanks.

ok, how do you connect, could you please post any code?
here's some example (one of numerous :) ):

it's possible that sql ce isn't installed properly or anything else. you could debug your app and see exactly which statement generate an error
