>Is there a way to do a live update of a VFP application using the Internet. I have seen this done in Norton Utilities and Norton Antivirus and also Turbo Tax.

As an alternative ... you could always utilise the RunOnce registry key to fire a batch file and force the user to reboot ... as MS does itself ... to make this batch file execute

This way you know that when the app restarts there will be no dangling exe's or other programs running that could cause a problem .
