>>>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.

>Carlos, our Wrapper is a VFP EXE with one prg and no forms. All it does is check your program EXE on the network for date and time and compare it to a copy on the user's C drive. If the program EXE is newer than the one on the C drive, the wrapper copies the EXE. Its last command is to run the program EXE on the C drive.
