cf sp2

Ok, so I downloaded the developer version and installed it. It dropped a
bunch of .cab files in the directory that I specified.

So, now what do I do?
1) overwrite the files in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
..NET 2003\CompactFrameworkSDK\v1.0.5000\Windows CE\* directory with the
similarly named files from sp2?

how do I get these files onto my device? and why is this so difficult to
do?

If I remember correctly, everthing is installed on the PC when the setup is
run.
When you run your first re-compiled project on the device, everything needed
is copied.
I don't remeber doing anything else.

Two ways are possible to get those SP2 CAB files onto your device.

First way:

You can copy the SP2 cab file "netcf.core.ppc3.ARM.cab" from folder
"Program Files\Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP2"
to the folder
"\Program Files\Microsoft .net VS 2003\CompactFrameworkSDK\v1.0.5000\Windows
CE\wce300\arm"

So, while you deploy from VS, this file will copied and installed by VS
itself.

Second way:

Manually you can copy this SP2 cab file to your device and open the cab file
from the device, it'll
install and clean the file.
