One of the files used by SDT is SDTMeta.dbf. Sometimes I get an error from the customer that this file cannot be read by the application. To prevent these errors, ideally, I would include this file into the application (into the .EXE).
But, for some customers, this file has to be updated/changed, when the application is being updated. Reason is that these customers have custom fields or some other custom settings that require this file to be different from other customers.
Therefore, I would like to include this file, SDTMeta.dbf into the EXE; but for those that need to have a custom version, modify it - during the update - and then store it into the .EXE
