Installing Sql Mobile via CAB file

Hi guys,

wonder if someone can help? I have written an app the runs on PocketPC 2003 and uses CF 2 and Sql Mobile 2005. I need to be able to install my application and Sql Mobile from within a desktop app. This is what I am doing, but I have a few questions:

Using RAPI I copy over to the device; myApp.CAB and sqlce30.ppc.wce4.armv4.CAB.
Using RAPI I then run wceload on these two CAB files.

This works a treat, both application install properly and work!!

But, in the same directory as the sqlce30.ppc.wce4.armv4.CAB (in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SmartDevices\SDK\SQL Server\Mobile\v3.0\wce400\armv4) there are two other CAB files:

sqlce30.dev.ENU.ppc.wce4.armv4.CAB
sqlce30.repl.ppc.wce4.armv4.CAB

My application doesn't use replication so I didn't copy over the second file. But what is the first one, and do I need it installed on the device?

Thanks for your help
Graham
