I have been developing a CF application in Visual Studio 2003.NET and
am now ready to deploy it for testing. I can deploy it to the device
connected to my development machine, but I want to create an installer,
etc.

Everything I can find indicates that in Visual Studio, after I run
"Build Cab File", I should find a ".INF" file in the project/cab/mode
directory. I can see CAB and DAT files for all the processor types,
but no INF file.

The microsoft docs indicate that Visual Studio chould create it:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/netcfdeployment.asp

as do many postings in this group. I downloaded ezsetup.exe, and it
looks easy, except "all it needs" is an INI file (which also does not
exist.)

I must be missing something, this seems inordinately frustrating and
complex. Any help or guidance would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Joel
 
It should be in "[Project]\obj\[Active Solution Configuration]\*.inf"

thank you thank you thank you.... I was obviously looking in the wrong
place. I figured I must have missed something simple.

Thanks again,
