Data Source Problem in SQL server mobile edition

Hi,

I am using SQLCE and VS 2005 to create a database named "student.sdf" (inside my projects folder, of course). When click on the button, it will test for connection of database.
Everytimes I run the program, it will pop up an error message "The database file cannot be found. Check the path to the database. [File name = .\student.sdf]". How do I fix it?

Code Snippet

Imports System.Data.SqlServerCe

Public Class loginForm

Private _conn As SqlCeConnection


Private Sub ButtonLogin_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ButtonLogin.Click

_conn = New SqlCeConnection("Data Source =.\student.sdf")

Try
_conn.Open()

MessageBox.Show("Correct")

Catch ex As SqlCeException

MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Hand, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1)
Finally

_conn.Close()

End Try

End Sub

End Class

Did you try changing the current directory in debug settings?

Data Source file on Reporting Services server question

In the Reporting Services Manager, when the user selects the folder where the
reports reside there is a file that contains the connection string
information along with a user name and password (Data Source).
Is there a way to keep the file from being selected by the user ?
Thanks.There is a setting in the properties of the data source to "Hide in List
View". Unfortunately the users can just click on the "Show Details"
option and see the datasource. Depending on the permissions you gave
them they will only be able to view the information.
I sent an question out some time ago seeing if there was away to remove
the "Show Details" for some users but no one replied.

have to change it manually for each deployed report affected. Also
everytime you deploy the report it will create the datasources in the
deployment folder if it can, so you have to remove it each time.
Having said that, this would essentially cure your problem.

Is it possible to create data processing extension in old asp? Either yes
or no, could someone post a link to some sample code, aspx samples would be
just fine?I forgot to mention that I only know VB. So please provide the samples in
VB. Thx a mil!

I remmember is that you can write some code to do that, using ListChildren
method of Reporting Service Web Server, like this:
dim items() as CatalogItem
items = (new ReportingService).ListChildren("/", True)
then populate a list:
for each item as CatalogItem in items
cboWhatever.Items.Add(new ReportItem(item.name, item.Path))
next
That is it. Do not forget to reference the RS web service...

Data problem when publishing website

I published my website directly to its production folder then opened Sql Express Management Studio and attached the ASPNETDB file to it in that folder. However, the location information displayed in the Databases window shows the file is actually mapped back to my development folder. ?

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Yes, I did verify that I selected the correct location.

Okay, my mistake, it isn't actually mapped back to that file, it just names the database with the original path. Gotta wonder what genius thought that one up.
