Re: CAB files

Thank you ryan.

All that sounds very good, this xml seems to be excatly what i need !
But there is no xml files in the cabs i have extract.

Hi ROM,

If you open your cab file and extract the _setup.xml file it contains
all the information for the location of each file. i.e.

<parm name="InstallDir" value="%CE1%\MyProg" translation="install" />

Indicates the install directory will be \Program Files\MyProg and

<characteristic type="LMP.SqlCe.dll" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Extract">
<parm name="Source" value="LMPSQL~1.001" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>

Tells you the LMPSQL~1.001 will be copied to the install directory as
LMP.SqlCe.dll

From this you should be able to reconstruct your INF file.

Hope it helps
Ryan
