I have a dump file of an SQL Server compact edition the database is password-encrypted and the file extension is : database.sdf

Is there a way to extract data from the dump file ?

Use the following Data Source “C:\temp\database.sdf;Password=mypassword” to open an encrSQL Server Compact edition file but you must know the password and add that to the connection string.
