Laxmi, The latest version I can find that's available for download is Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 and Microsoft Synchronization Services for ADO.Net v1.0 for Windows Desktop (v.3.5.5386.0). What's the availability and download point for SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP1 Beta for ADO.NET Entity Framework Provider Beta (v.3.5.5626)? Thanks in advance, --rj See http://oakleafblog.blogspot.com/2008/02/linq-and-entity-framework-posts-for.htmlAnonymous
