Update users frontend

[JerryS]

I want to update my users (about 4-7 users), with code changes. I have a
frontend & backend. How is the best way to do this, say dynamically ?

Hi Jerry,

I just launch the database from a shortcut that begins by copying the
front end from the server to the workstation. This means that there's
also no worries about bloat/corruption/temporary tables etc. in the
front end, because they get it fresh every time.

For a less brute-force approach, see

You can expand on Johns idea by adding a revision
date/version # to the main database and only copy the
client piece if the existing client piece is out of date.
This will help on network traffic.
