Compact Tools Download Problem

When I try and download Sqlce30setupen.msi from the msdn site, I keep getting the install for the mobile tools. Can someone explain why this is happening. I am new to SQL compact and I am trying to go through the tutorial http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb226707.aspx. This tutorial says the download should be for SQL Compact setup.

Thanks

Ryan

All downloads for SQL Compact Edition are available from http://www.microsoft.com/sql/editions/compact/downloads.mspx|||

Hi Ryan,

Are you having the same problem as me? When I download the setup file from the SQL Compact downloads url provided, it doesn't install the Compac Server Tools but tries to install "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile SP1 [ENU] Server Tools". I'm trying to install on Windows Server 2003. Interestingly if I run the same file on XP Pro it successfully installs the Compact Server Tools. I just added a new thread about this problem.

Regards,

Greg
