Hi Craig! Mostly rain here (almost and inch which is 2 months worth for here). Turned to snow at the end with about an inch on the ground.
Connection strings are not the problem per se. The problem is getting the sqlceoledb provider to show up in the standard windows dialogs. Haven't had any luck setting up a file dsn either.
