Desktop Installation...Uninstalling

I have created a desktop installation for a Pocket PC app. The installation
installs an MS Access database on the desktop that the PPC app syncs with.
When I uninstall the application it removes all the files installed on my
desktop including the database. Is it possible to do an uninstall but leave
the database file? An accidental uninstall of the database would be bad!

Thanks.

PS. I used the reference
(http://www.codeproject.com/netcf/PackagingAndDeployingPPC.asp) to create the
installation.
 
I stumbled across a setting that accomplishes what I was looking for. For
anyone who may have the same issue down the road, there is a property for
files included in your setup called 'Permanent'. If you set this to 'True'
it will leave the file upon an uninstall.
