Hello to All
I have one application in Vb.Net that is used by 11 users that operate
in 11 diferent pcs.
They All have the .exe file on there pc and they connect to an Sql
Server databse that "sits" on a Server. Can I have one .exe on the
server too and all the other pcs oparate on a shorcut of that .exe ?
Cause when i have an upgrade curently i have to go and overwrite
the .exe for all 11 pcs.
Thanks

Yes you can have the application sit on a network share, but it will
be a horror getting all the permissions set up for the user as
application run from a network share have very, very limited rights. A
better solution would be to create a ClickOnce set up project for the
application and deploy it to the network, and have the users link to
this file. Then when it opens it will install itself on the client (or
update itself if it's already installed) with the necessary rights to
run the application. Then when you need to perform updates you just
have to update the ClickOnce file, and the next time a user opens it,
it will be the correct version.
Thanks,
