Recently at work I investigated the possibility of delivering our rich client application as an ActiveX control. I was surprised to know there is no good support of ActiveX CAB delivering in Visual Studio 2008. What I had to do is to learn a little the syntax of cab inf file. Strange format as for me:
[Setup Hooks]
hook1=hook1
[hook1]
run=msiexec.exe /i "%EXTRACT_DIR%\setup1.msi" /qn
[Version]
signature="$CHICAGO$" AdvancedINF=2.0
I've 'rambled' many sites, some of them can be useful for you:
