SQL Server Compact 4.0 SP1
Hi,
Can anyone confirm if SP1 is actually still supported? It's hard to differentiate between 4.0 being end of life in 2021 and SP1.
I've searched as much as I can but can't see anything that says 4.0 and SP1 are both end of life. But, it could also be read that everything to do with 4.0 is end of life.
If anyone has some concrete info on this it would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have the same question. Specifically, when does/did sp1 for SQL Server Compact 4.0 fall out of support?

T_Preble SQL CE 4.0 is out-of-support, SP1 don't change that, see
Microsoft SQL Server Compact 4.0 - Microsoft Lifecycle | Microsoft Learn
- T_PrebleCopper Contributor@ olafhelper thank you, I did see that page before posting here. However, this page
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/microsoft-sql-server-2008-r2
more clearly explains the confusion that remains for both me and Fraserb: the original product has one EOL date, the product + service pack has other EOL dates. Thus, "when does/did sp1 for SQL Server Compact 4.0 fall out of support?" remains an open question.
