about .CAB deploiement

[fump]

Hello,
I would like to deploy my application using .CAB files.
So, i create a deploiement site which contains .CAB for my
application, SQL CE, compact framework.

When someone wants to install my application, he should
download every of the 5 files. (3 for SQL CE).
Is it possible to create only one .CAB file for the entire
application ?

If not, is it possible to create a .MSI file for the
entire application which should be executed from the
user's desktop computer ?

Thanks,
fump.

I think 3.1 "How do I create a PocketPC setup application?" pertains to
your situation
