I was able to successfully use the free EZsetup program
to install my app to the Pocket Pc, but only after
the .NET framework is loaded. How do you install the .NET
framework in the Pocket Pc using a "setup" program
(without using Visual Studio)?

Thanks

Hi Bert, you would need to roll the .NET Compact Framework CABs into a
desktop installer that detects the processor type of the target device. A
whitepaper on this very subject is due to go live on MSDN later today:

In the meantime the sample is live right now and is available for download
from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...E7-1383-4944-AEDB-52CB5E8EB529&displaylang=en

I am not aware of any installation building tools that provide this
functionality.

Alternatively you could have your customers download and run the Microsoft
..NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP1 End User Redistributable package, available
here:
