Hi,
from a previous answer...
Ok, after a bit of digging, try this (or similar)
Dim Ccon As New SqlConnection("Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=beehive25,1068;initial catalog=Sales_Data;user id=sa;password=polaris;")
This was gleaned from http://netcf2.blogspot.com/2005/12/a...ress-from.html
It would appear you don't need to quote the instance

Thanks but still the same error. I would be grateful if you could help me on any other way I could copy data from sqlserver 2005 database tables to sqlce database tables.Quote:

If you want to copy data from your Sql2005 database, you will still have to connect to it. The other way to populate would be to use RDA or replication
