Creating a CAB file on WinCE


I want to make a CAB file on a WinCE 5/6 device. The idea is that someone would run a backup script that creates the CAB file, which can then be loaded back onto the device at any point restoring settings to a previously known point.

The settings are xml and custom files in various folders on the device, I am not talking specifically about registry settings.

If this cannot be done is there (commercially) free ZIP file creation software that could be used?

Thankyou in advance Chris
