Hi,

I create a setup file for windows mobile application, but if the target device dont have a .NET CF, it is possible create a setup that verify if device target has the .NET CF installed and if not install it? How i do that?

If you want to create a desktop installer for your mobile application you
can create an MSI that will install the application via ActiveSync by
following the instructions in the "Deploying .NET Compact Framework 2.0
Applications with .cab and .msi files" article available on MSDN at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa446504.aspx.

Using this technique you can also install pre-requisites such as the .NET CF
by simply extending the technique to install multiple CAB files.

If you want to do this on the PDA, you may be able to use a technique such
as the "Multiple CAB Install" code sample available at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb158796.aspx but I must say I have
not tried this technique for the actual .NET CF runtime CABs.

Hope this helps,
Christopher Fairbairn
