But the concept of updating what needs to be updated is what I was referring to. Stephen Settimi (sp?) had an article back in Foxpro Advisor back in 1999 (or sometime around there) where he did something like this with the VFP parts. He built his core EXE with basically just the Main.prg, and everything else was excluded. He then used a Loader type of approach pretty much checking all the various files that were needed for the rest of the solution, and downloaded what was newer or missing. Same idea, but 10 years ago with the VFP parts. Right? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
