Copying a database to your Windows CE device

Any existing SQL Anywhere database can be copied to your Windows CE device using the method described in this section. However, you must keep in mind that any database features that are not supported on Windows CE will not work when you copy the database to your Windows CE device. See SQL Anywhere feature support on Windows CE.

To copy a database to your Windows CE device

  1. Connect the Windows CE device to your computer.

  2. Open Windows Explorer on your computer.

  3. Browse to the directory on your computer containing the database that you want to copy.

  4. Right-click the database file and choose Copy.

  5. Open a second instance of Windows Explorer.

  6. Browse to the directory on your Windows CE device where you want to store the database file.

    Tip

    When starting a database on your Windows CE device using the Server Startup Options dialog, you can only use Browse to search for the database file in the My Documents directory.

    If the database is not stored in the My Documents directory, you must type the path of the database in the Database field of the Server Startup Options dialog.

  7. Right-click an open area of the Windows Explorer window for your Windows CE device and then choose Paste.

    The file is copied to the Windows CE device.
