I am using the Visual Studio 2005 Beta. I am trying to figure out how to create a cab file for deployment. The old option to "Build a cab file" from VS 2003 doesn't seem to exist in VS 2005. If anyone can assist me, I would appreciate it very much.
Thank you.

You need to create a new "Smart Device CAB" project and add it to your solution. You can find it in the add project dialog under the "Other Project Types" > "Setup and Deployment" node.

Neil,
I'm a beginner and I'm attempting to publish my first Windows Mobile application. I did what you said above, and did a build, but I can't get the .exe file to install on my PDA. Is there a tutorial or any step-by-step info on how to publish a mobile application
Thanks.

You need to copy the cab onto some folder on the device using ActiveSync. < xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
On the device, you can locate the cab using file explorer and tap on it. WinCE will then install your CAB.
