Working on my first script for Pocket PC - Need some help
Hi
I have read through the forums and have used an example off of here to create an install for my application. However it is not working quite right.
It displays the readme.txt and eula.txt fine and connects to my Pocket PC fine but the installation screen for the Pocket PC has a bunch of files listed there to select for install/remove (why I don't know) but none are the files contained in my script. It appears that my cabs and .mdb file are being ignored even though they are in the same folder as the readme.txt and eula.txt.
Can some someone figure this out for me and point me in the right direction. I am new to this so simple explainations work best for my simple mind.
I have pasted my ini file then my installer script.
Thanks
