Just give the new version of the app the same creator code and a higher version number. The OS will only allow one app to exist on the device per creator code, and will give preference to the one with the higher version number. Then they just have to install the new one. -hkmlt -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
