i successfully installed the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, it works pretty nice. Im trying to import an SQL Compact database (sdf) for a application i want to develop, the problem is, when im adding the "Connection" on "Server explorer" i doesn't give me the option to add an "SQL Compact" I have also installed the VS2008, on that version it shows, but i wanted to do on VS2010, i installed the SQL Compact 3.5 and 4 for VS2010 but still the problem.

Also the "sqlcetoolbox" from codeplex doesn't work it gives me some weird errors when im trying to add an SQL Compact 3.5 or 4 on to my proyect.

My dvd of VS2010 doesn't come with a option for "SQL Compact" on Advanced Install when im on the setup.

What im doing wrong?

Sounds like SQL Server Compact is not properly installed. Go to about box in the Toolbox to check the status.

Try installing SQL Compact with nuget.
