You need a custom setup.dll that will launch the app.

Thanks Chris, in VS2003 there was this vsd_setup.dll. I don't seem
to have this VS2005. Is this anything to do with it

No, you have to write your own custom setup.dll. CAB files don't by nature
launch anything after install - they simply enter setup.dll. You can have
it do whatever launching you want.
