Hello all,
   I am developing a web application using C# and some of my pages are
hosting WinForm controls.  Some of these usercontrols have 3rd party
controls embedded in them, the problem arises that if the client PC doesn't
have these 3rd party controls installed it won't work.  So....
...I need answers to the following questions:
1)    If I build a CAB file with my control in it when deployed will it
install the 3rd party components.
2)    How do I get a web page to download, install and run my CAB file.

Many thanks

depends on how complex the install is. IE auto install of cab files is
limited. also will not download and  install 22mb .net runtime support.

note: the next security release of IE will put more restrictions on the use
of active/x controls. your users will need to approve each of the third
party controls seperatly.
