I have installed the system and deployed an application to my device , but having some issues with sql connectivity. The test app runs fine on my pc , and connects to the sql database. When I deploy it to the ce device , I cannot access the sql database. I have read many articles online but still stuck , changed the connection string etc.

What I have noticed is that I cannot browse my sql server using the ip from the ce device , only using the hostname.

Can somebody please assist with this issue?

Thanks

Make sure you have the compact framework installed on the device. I am running a Win CE 5.0 device and SQL is working fine for me.
