How would you update your users non-runtime version?
You can't possibility have users import, and delete, and try and "know" what
parts to import..can you?
I don't think this is one bit an issue of runtime, or not....
However, what every developer should do, and does is use a split database.
You thus have two parts, the data part, and the part with code/forms/reports
etc.
It is a simply matter to supply your users a new mde (you do use a
mde..right???).
check out the following on splitting...
