Question

Im trying to insert data to my compact database, I got this error:

There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 1,Token line offset = 1,Token in error = USE ]

And here is my code, mostly found online:

                SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection(@"Data Source=|DataDirectory|\CompactDatabase.sdf");
                conn.Open();

                SqlCeCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
                cmd.CommandText = "USE Movie INSERT INTO Movie(title, ean) VALUES(?,?)";
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@title", title);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ean", ean);
                cmd.Prepare();                
                cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

Anyone figure out the problem?

Anyone figure out the problem?

Just throw away USE clause and execute this query instead:

INSERT INTO Movie(title, ean) VALUES(?,?)

USE is a context switching clause between databases in T-SQL, that is not applicable here.
