Detecting if SQL CE is installed on PPC.

[Michael Lahrkamp]

How can my PPC application developed using .NET detect whether SQL CE is
installed? Are there registry keys?

Thanks,
Mike

You could try and load one of the assemblies using the

When doing auto-update I check for it's presence by just looking for
\Windows\SQL CE\ssce20.dll (or something like that, can't remember the
spelling).

Hope this helps,
