Add SQL Compact to CE 6.0

I'm trying to add an SQL Compact Edition database to my application running on a CE 6.0 platform that I am also developing. Unlike PB 5.0, I don't see sql CE listed as an option in the catalog and when I try to run my application I get a pInvoke sqlceme30.dll error. I have found a number of references to this same issue elsewhere but no real good solutions. Most seem to point to the cab files not being deployed. I am thinking that I should have the necessary support files deployed in the CE image and I have downloaded and installed every sql CE version/update that I can find but none of them seem to add support to PB 6.0.

I am trying to add the cab files manually but I would appreciate any suggestions if there is a better solution............ Thanks
OK, I got it working with SQL CE 3.5 by manually adding the cabs to the PB catalog........... now I need to figure out how to installe the cabs automatically.
