    you could make another ams app that has the fixed exe's in it and simply have the user select the installed dir and have it copy/overwrite the old one's. Or you might look into IR's TrueUpdate [very nice proggy made for this sorta thing]

    thanks for the replay

    about True Update I have downloaded it before but i think it needs An Update

    Server which i don't have at the moment so what i am asking is can i create an

    update file without needing to connect to a server?

    and thanks again.

    in the files options if you want to override them all just select all
    SUF:
    File Properties > General Tab > at the bottem chat to Always Override existing Files
    AMS:
    Just when you copy a file tell it to overide true

    kinda simple

    What do you people mean by "'I hate True Update"?
    I am not a programmer but I was considering purchasing Trueupdate as a way of "pushing"new and updated presentations/pdfs to our sales team using a "Check for Updates" button

    Looking at your emails, I am a bit wary of getting out of my depth

    Would appreciate if someone can provide the upsides and downsides before I make my decision
    Thanks
