Hi,

>What I do is at the start of the application, I use SETDBPROP() to set the password, open a dummy view (that will remain opened until the app closes) and immediatly use SETDBPROP() again to remove the password. As long as all the views are sharing their connections (including the dummy view), everything works.

You point is very good, but I can't use SETDBPROP()because it
included inside the exe.

I wrote a loader.exe to load the newest version APP for users,
so i can modify everything while they are working, and they will
got the newest loaded next time they click the shortcut of the loader.

if i don't include DBC in exe, I can not modify update user's DBC without
got all them quit .

I think it will work, we can retry unitl dbsetprop success.
