ClickOnce updates and Data folder

Hi, I am settings up my application to work with ClickOnce deployment.
However, after instlling installing an update, the database doesn't get
copied. I tried everything I could think of.

It is a SQL Server Express database created in ClickOnce data folder
(ApplicationDeployment.CurrentDeployment.DataDirec tory). I use User
Instances, that is, I connect directly to the database file.

So, I install version 0.7.0.0, run it, it creates a new database, I add data
to it. Then, I update to version 0.7.1.0. The database doesn't get copied so
I loose my data. I made sure the database is detached before updating but it
doesn't help. Any ideas? I'm clueless on this one.

This is the database that *should* get copied:
C:\Documents and Settings\Etienne\Local
Settings\Apps\2.0\Data\W596OLLL.TL5\5YR6XOT1.HHP\f orm...app_dafda4b6e62d7a1b_0000.0000_422f5ed55aef8 e45\Data\FormanaDB.mdf
(and log file)

Also, I create manifests manually using Mage tool because of Visual Studio
limitations.

btw, I can't find much on google about ClickOnce issues, anybody know of
active ClickOnce forums or something?

Thanks,
Etienne
