I have a large scale application used by over 350 clients. My company has decided to rename (and expand) this existing application (old name: EDWin new name: iePoint). I have successfully changed the project and related files to the new name. The existing DBC is named EDWin.dbc. I want to rename it to iePoint.dbc. I know that I can rename the DBC within the project, then issue VALIDATE DATABASE RECOVER to correct the backlinks for all tables. My question is this: how will I do this same process at over 350 clients? When the new application is installed at the client's site, the install process will run a VFP "fix" program, but I am not sure how to programatically rename EDWin.dbc to iePoint.dbc and fix the backlinks on all tables.

BTW: I do use Stonefield - could this be of some help?

TIA
