Replacing Tables, Modules, etc

Friends, I have a split database and would like to make some updates
to share with all users in various Offices in the World. I would like
just to send them a new mdb file which will contain the updated
tables, queries and modules and with a form on which I will add a
button that will replace these with the old ones. Is there a way I can
do this or a code sample_

Say my original database is stored on the drive
C:\database\Clients.mdb

My new updates file should replace the following tables, queries and
modules:
TBL1
TBL2
QRY1
QRY2
MDL1
MDL2

Is there a way this can be done automatically? I would prefer to do
this via code that having someone on the other hand just making the
changes.

Thanks.

Hi Paolo,

I believe a product named Surgical Strike, marketed by Database Creations, Inc., can be
used to accomplish this goal.

I have not used this product, so I really cannot recommend it one way or another.

Paolo,

Be aware that when you replace Tbl1 and Tbl2 you will lose all existing data in
those two tables!!

The queries & modules should be in the front end database (not the back end
one containing the tables), so you just give them a new front end database,
and they copy it completely over the old front end one.

As for the tables, as another respondent said, if you give them new copies,
this will erase the changes that they had made to those tables, no?

HTH,
