In Forms Generator, I have the users log in, and the first time they do they are prompted for certain critical settings, without which the app won't function. I save those settings in the login table of the database. For your purposes, you could simply create a sqlite table for that purpose.
If the user deletes the database then you have grounds to stand on that the user caused his own troubles and needs to restore the backup he is sure not to have made before deleting his own settings.

The one thing I haven't tried to do is to use persistent custom properties inside of my apps. I'm more worried about the user deleting the app and wiping the data with it, so even though I keep everything locally, I still want it in the cloud, too. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
