HI,
I need to know what should I do to install sqlserverce manually (not from
cab). What library are necesary to copy and where,  and register and how.

Thanks.

Catalin,

There's nothing to register. You can just copy the DLLs to the \Windows
folder or to your app's folder. The DLLs you need will depend on the
features you use, but there are only about 6 in all. You could experiment to
find out which ones those are for your app if you're looking for a minimal
install.

Unpackaging the SQL Server CE cab file is not supported, why do you want to
do this? You do know that you can install the cab silently?

On the device you can execute the following (e.g. use Process.Start, or a
native installer exe - we do this from our SD Card based install)
Process.Start("\\windows\\wceload.exe", "/silent \"\\SD
Card\\CabFiles\\sqlce30.ppc.wce5.armv4i.CAB\"");

Where you replace the full path to where the cab file is on your device. On
devices prior to WM5 replace the /silent switch with /noui /noaskdest
switches.
