title: Convert sql ce tables to .xls or .xlsx format
body: <p>I have a c# windows application that makes use of a database in SQL Compact Edition 3.5 for data manipulation. I would like to convert each table in the database to an excel file. I realise that I could simply read cell by cell and export to excel, However, I have a lot of tables (upwards of 100) and this could take a long time. Is there any method to convert the tables in the SQL CE database file into Excel spreadsheets in a quicker manner. </p>
  
  <p>My users wanted the data in excel because they wanted access to raw, unmanipulated data for reference purpose. Also, they are quite comfortable with excel.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any simple technique to accomplish this? </p>
