in reply to ActivePerl (x64) is not working with MS SQL Server CE Database

Not sure if this will help, but it is easy enough to try --
Connectionstrings.com and this MSDN forum seem to suggest putting the password into the connection string like this:
PROVIDER=Microsoft.SQLSERVER.CE.OLEDB.3.5;ssce:database password=test; +Data Source=C:\temp\testcompact3.sdf Provider=Microsoft.SQLSERVER.MOBILE.OLEDB.3.0;Data Source=myPath\myDat +a.sdf; SSCE:Database Password='myPassword';

    Success eventually came on applying following Connection String

    my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:ADO:PROVIDER=Microsoft.SQLSERVER.CE.OLEDB. +3.5;ssce:database password=$pass;Data Source=E:\\PUCC\\DB\\D_stud.sdf +");

    Many many thanks for the reference
