I have installed bob larson's auto fe updater per his suggestion. When i make
a design change, i change the version #s on the FE and BE. The
tbl-version_master_location is the location where my master is saved on the
network. I have created an MDE file from my master Fe and distributed it to
each user. When another user tries to open their copy of the FE, the updater
checks to see if there is a new version. Closes the old version but errors
when it tries to open the newest version. I have the FE's copied to each
users my documents and when i look in there after the updater errors, there
is a Update application which wasn't previously there. If i click on this it
will open the newest version of the FE.
Is there any easy way to fix this problem so that the newest version opens?
I followed the directions to a T. Any help would be appreciated.
 
The application that installs in the users my documents is the batch file-
basFEUpdate. I guess it's the module from the newest version FE.
 
What error are you getting when it tries to copy?
