Pocket Access Database synchronization via Install?

I have succesfully created a desktop .msi installation file that installs my app on a Pocket PC and installs an Access database on the desktop. Now, for this install to actually mean anything, I need to setup a synchronization with my Pocket PC app and the Access database. I know I can do it manually but I am trying to avoid having to make my clients do that. Is there a way to automate this process?
 
Hi

I'm not the original poster but i have the same problem with a little
difference.

I'm using a unit similar that is discussed in the article
http://www.inthehand.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=50
but inside a System.Configuration.Install.Installer class this was allowing
me to do the syncronisation during
the installation process but that is also my problem if DESKTOPTODEVICE is
called during the install i'm
getting a System.StackOverflowException and the install fails.

The strange part is that if i create a test application and call the
Method DESKTOPTODEVICE of my
installer class everything works correctly the DB file is copied and
syncronized correctly.

I have used the instruction in this article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetcomp/html/netcfdeployment.asp
to create The CumtomInstaller dll and it works until i insert the
DESKTOPTODEVICE call.

Anybody has an idee, any help would be appreciated ty.
