To manage your SQL Compact 3.1 database file from Management Studio Express, you must install Management Studio Express 2005 SP2.

I have downloaded both SQL Server Express and Compact edition
I can only see the Express edition in the SSMS
How to find the SQL Server Compact Edition?
Thanks
SQL Server Compact Edition is a file-based solution (using .sdf files), not a server-based solution like SQL Server Express.
Therefore SQL Server CE cannot (really) be managed/handled by SQL Server Management Studio. (I do know - some people claim you can - but I personally have never been able to open any .sdf file in any version of SQL Server Management Server).
You'll need something like the SQL Server CE Toolbox to look at those .sdf files and their contents
I have downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Express edition and I was not able to fine query analyzer to run the queries or design the database.
You need to download Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005 (Or the 2008 version). It is also possible to design the database and run queries inside Visual Studio.
I have a database program developed in Visual Studios 2005. It uses SQL Express in creating and connecting to the database. I have created a deployment package with SQL Express. Can this be installed on a PC that has SQL 2005 Compact Edition installed?
SQL Express and SQL Compact are two different versions. You will need to install SQL Express on the PC as well.

You need to download and install Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express.
You can use either the 2005 or 2008 version of Management Studio to connect to a SQL Server 2005 database.
I use Visual Web Developer Express Edition 2008 and SQL Server 2008 Express edition. I have finished a project recently. But many of hosting firms don't have SQL Server 2008. So i decided to uninstall SQL Server 2008 and install SQL Server 2005. Then I would reproduce my database. I uninstalled SQL Server 2008, installed SQL Server 2005. In project, When i clicked "App_Data - Add new item - SQL Server Database", an error accured "Connections to SQL server files (*.mdf) require SQL Server 2005 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkId=49251". I couldn't add a new database to my project.
So how do i integrate SQL Server 2005 Express Edition to Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition?
Check the setting under Tools > Options > Database Tools > Data Connections for the SQL Server Instance Name refers to the name of your SQL Express 2005 instance.
Check SQL Server Express is running using the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
