I saw some other forum posts about migrating from VistaDB over to SQL Server, but now that Umbraco 4.6 (Juno) has been released with support for SQL CE 4 ... is it possible to migrate the schema/data?
Reason being that I have an old Umbraco 4.0.x install (using VistaDB), which I would love to upgrade to Umbraco 4.6. The web-host didn't have a database-server, so using an embedded database-engine was essential!
VistaDB does have a GUI called Data Builder - but I can't seem to find a download anywhere - it must be a commercial application, but can't find any details about that either!
I haven't tried SQL CE 4 in Management Studio yet - there's probably some data import thing that I can hook in VistaDB.
If anyone else has any suggestions, I'm all ears! :-D
Well if you can import it into SQL Server you could then generate a full script to create a schema and insert data, then run it against the CE4 instance (attach it using VS 2010 SP1)

Thanks, Lee.
Posts here or posts somewhere else?
VistaDB has to have some kind of a query interface, that's probably you're only option, I doubt anyone has an automated tool for the job.
I mean posts here... plus a "removed" package.
