Full setup program ?

[Paul J.]

Hello,
Is it possible to create a setup program which could be
executed from the Pocket pc himself ?
I do not want to use a desktop PC but i would like to
provide a full setup program (.EXE or .MSI) on a SD card.
It will contain sql CE, CF and my smart application.

Thanks,
PJ

Just create a wrapper around wceload.exe, which expands CAB files.

Hello,
Thank you for the clue.
i found a setup application to install .CAB fils which
give me some ideas. (CabInstl.exe)
But i do not find wceload.exe on my pda!
I read that it should be in /windows but it is not !?
Thanks,
PJ

It's there, but is likely hidden (like coredll.dll). You might be able to
see it using remote file viewer from the PC, but I guaranteee it's there.
Open the "run" windows and type in "wceload.exe".

yes, i believe you :-]

But ... i have ever try to see this file with my desktop
PC or to clic "see hidden files" on the PDA ..
Perhaps this file has been renamed with PPC 2003 ..
I keep on my searches...
