My app first downloads the updated files(means that executable file, Libs folder and supporting files if necessary) from http server. Then it launches a "Updater exe" which resides in same directory as the executable file and quit itself. Updater exe replace/Add the old files with new one. Then it launches the main application and quits. Everything working fine. I have one question. My app uses a database which resides in same folder as executable file. If I made any changes in the database. How will that changes reflect in the existing database during software update? I just can't replace the old database file with new one. Because user will save some data into that database and that should not be lost. _________________ Amitava Real Studio 2011 Release 4 Windows 7 (32 bit) Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 1 post ] -- Over 1500 classes with 29000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in collection.
