>Nick's launcher, as it stands, has no provision for this.

I thought so. I created my own loader before being aware of available loaders in the download section - in fact, before joining the UT. I improved on this later.

In its current version, my loader, depending on the parameter, will either:

1) Load the latest version (from the server).

or,

2) Show a list of the available versions (also on the server), with their creation dates.

In my case, letting the end-user be able to go back to a previous version was a big deal, because I don't work full-time at the company.

And in the worst of cases, a new report might only work with version 400, whilst an older report might only work with version 399!

Hilmar.
