Sql Server CE Licencing

That licencing SQL Server CE is free when not connecting to a SQL database, and when a copy of Visual Studio .NET is used to write the application (not the embedded VC++ as discussed in the EULA).

Is it possible the EULA is too old to include the newer .NET

Thanks,

Jeff

    The real issue is I'm in the design phase, and wanted to ensure I was choosing solid paths.

    Thanks again for the info.

    To use SQL CE with .Net you'd need VS 2003 Pro or above. SQL CE is included into VS 2003 and is covered by it's EULA.

    Since you're obviously very concerned with licensing issues, you might want to hire an attorney to eliminate all uncertainties with SQL CE and other products you're planning to use.
