Hi All,

I am have created a deployment project based on the MSDN example. The
problem I have is that it won't install on my pocket pc giving me an
"unsupported device type..." error.

I am using the signature capture control from HoodCanal systems in my
project and I sure it is the reason why I am getting the error. I know this
because of what this article says on MSDN:
"Unsupported Processors for Automatically Generated CAB Files".

Now, how do I go about creating custom cab files with my third-party
controls that I am using in my application. Visual Studio can't
automatically generated usable cab files.

Hi Girish,

Your article has moved to:
http://www.codeproject.com/ce/pocketpc_deploy.asp

So in my .inf file, I need to point to the dlls that the signature capture
control needs, right?
Something like this I suppose...

[SourceDisksNames]
1=,"Common1",,"C:\sarnil\dev\_vodafone\ipaq\PRSS\PRSS\PRSSForms\obj\Release\
"
2=,"ARM FILES",,c:\xxx\SignatureCapture3

[SourceDisksFiles]
PRSSForms.exe=1
SignatureCapture3.1.dll.exe=2
