Not a dumb question at all. Yes, you need to extract the DLLs from that CAB file, then add them to your project.
It is possible to build an installer that does multiple platforms. The installers generated by NS Basic don't try to do this, however: it is rare that an app needs to run on multiple platforms. If you have such an app, you will need to create your own .inf and .ini files. You can start with the ones that NS Basic/CE makes. This Tech Note will give you more details on how .ini and .inf files work. >This is probably a dumb question, but here goes... > >Using NS Basic/CE 8.x, if I have a component packaged as CAB files >should I extract the DLL from the CAB in order to reference and use it? > >Also I have separate CABs for ARM, MIPS, and SH3 (and an INI referencing >all 3 of them).
