Don't worry about your English, your meaning is clear. What we do is have a 'wrapper' program. This program checks the date and time of the EXE against a copy on the user's C drive. If the network copy is newer, the wrapper program copies the file, otherwise it simply starts the EXE on the C drive, pointing data to the network.

This way, we can compile a new EXE, copy it into the network folder and each user will get it when they next start the program.
