Cannot find namespace ‘System.Data.SqlServerCe’

This can be solved confirming following 2 points:

  1. Check whether you already have System.Data.SqlServerCe namespace added to
    the References folder of your application. If its not there you
    may right click the References folder and select Add references
    option. From the popup window go to .Net tab and select
    System.Data.SqlServerCe from the list and click OK to add the namespace to the
    project.
  2. If you are OK with step 1, add using System.Data.SqlServerCe; to
    the top of your code behind file which uses the
    System.Data.SqlServerCe namespace.
