installing .exe file to pocketpc

[talluritrk]

hi
1) i have a .exe file of an application. If i copy the .exe file to my pocket pc using Active Syn and i am trying to run the application
by taping the .exe file it is not getting started.

The pocket PC is a new one that is does not contain embedded
visual tools.

2) If my application uses ActiveX controls how can i instal the application along with activeX control to new Pocket PC( if the pocketpc has been done hard reset)
thanks

There are many, many different ways to do this:

You can use a commercial product like "Install Shield" i believe they have a module which will work with Windows CE devices. You can write your own install program and copy the files over manually. [This is what I have done for all of my installs] You can use the.cab file method. I believe the new CE.NET stuff will contain a means for doing this too. There is not quick and easy way to do this, however, with a little research, intelligence and effort it can be accomplished.
