Check Re: How to receive progress update during COPY FILE TO ? Message #793756

>My framework checks for updates whenever a user starts the app. This causes a short delay if new components are copied down to the client so sometimes users will keep clicking on the shortcut. BTW, my users often want to have muliple copies of the app running so I don't want to limit them to only one, just let them know that it's actually loading. I'd like to put up a splash screen with something along the line of the file copy dialog in Windows.
