Richard,
No problem.... It can be set up for any VFP .exe app to use and is driven via a 
small DBF table which says which app to load, where to put it on the local 
machine etc... You can run many apps through the loader at once and it also 
passes parameters onward from your shortcut to the main app.

I'll package it up and put it onto Ed's page.

Dave

Having a great deal of respect for your VFP chops, is your loader something you 
can share, Dave? I'm always curious about the mechanics of these types of 
things.

I have a general purpose "Loader" app that loads the .exe from the server onto 
the local workstation in a pre-defined folder and runs it. This means that 
updating the .exe on the server is simple as you are sure that it is never open 
by anyone. In addition I can send the loader instructions to unload the local 
.exe if there is a workstation server update due. It unloads the local "exe" 
and sits waiting for a signal to upload the newer updated .exe off the server. 
And it has saved hors of trouble finding out who has the application open on 
the network.
