I have a mobile application with a .sdf Database included. I am developing on
Windows XP SP2 and deploying to Microsoft Device Emulator V3.
In Solution Explorer if I right click and go into properties for the
database, the "Copy to Output Directory" option does not appear to be working
properly?
If I set the property to "Do not copy" or "Copy always" then it works as
expected.
If I set the property to "Copy if newer" then it functions like "Copy
always" and the database is always overwritten when I deploy the application.
I would expect this to only copy if I made some change to the database?
What am I missing?
How are you deploying your application? Are you using ClickOnce? Or a setup
& deployment package?

While in V2008, I click the Green Start Debugging button and it deploys
directly to the Device Emulator.
