To those who are interested in easy distribution of your new application versions for your network users.

I posted the Launcher program (source code included)
It allows to automatically replace the application EXE (and other files) with the newest version from the location on the server. The list of files to update is in LAUNCHER.INI text file. All you need to do - to point your shortcut on the workstation to Launcher.exe and pass it the parameter (your local application path). Launcher.exe, launcher.ini and all application files to update should reside in the same network directory.

Will appreciate any feedback.

Nick

P.S. My thanks to George Tasker for his Winfiles class which I am using there.
