How to migrate from SQL Server to SQL Server Compact Edition?

I have created a small database in SQL Server, but want to switch to the Compact edition instead since it is intended for use with a single desktop application. How do I go about migrating to the less advanced system?

Thanks.

[edit]

OK, found an answer in the form of a third-party app, Data Port Wizard.

Also stuff described here:

Not sure what I'm going to do when the 30 day license runs out. I'm developing my app for free. :(
