Sql Server CE 4 and EF 4.1 CF Win 64 bit deployment

Hi I have a following problem. I've created a project in 32 bit operating system. There I have installed EF 4.1 and SQL CE 4 for 32 bit. I've created a test table and launched it. Everything works, i.e. there is a connection to db and CRUD operations happen.

In the reference pane I've set the copy local property for binaries EntityFramework.dll, System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll and System.Data.SqlServerCe.Entity.dll to true.

Then I copy pasted the project into machine with x64 OS.

It gives me the following error:

Could not load file or assembly 'System.Data.SqlServerCe, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependencies. Access is denied.

Stack trace is

I just want to make my application work on both x86 and x64 platforms.

As per above, include both the x64 and x86 binaries OR set the processor type of your application to x86 (not all), then you do NOT have to distribute the x64 binares.

You must include the required x64 and x86 binaries with your app, or install the SQL Server Compact 4.0 MSI on the machine - http://erikej.blogspot.com/2011/02/using-sql-server-compact-40-with.html
