Hi,

I have a question about the creation of a .msi file for installing a
pocket pc application from a desktop computer. I'm trying to follow
the example found in msdn:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetcomp/html/netcfdeployment.asp

What I don't understand is which kind of project the CustomInstaller
project is. I can't find it anywhere, I've seen it's a dll so I tried
a Class Library but of course, nothing executed when I ran the Setup
project and it only created a folder on my desktop computer with the
class dll.

Could someone point me in the right direction ? Any help will be
appreciated !!
Thx in advance,

ori,

Did you download the sample install (Deployment.msi) which is on the
link you provided? I just used that as a starting point and modified
it for my specific needs.

I keep receiving an error during the installation of this .msi to the
effect "could not create instance of object after installation". So
now I can't get the solution installed. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Is there any way you could email me the files that it
installs and I can manually import them? Let me know in this forum
as my real email address is not listed.
