Hi!

How do you update a project that's already installed on the user's machines?
In VB6, I would just overwrite the exe (when everyone was out of the
project) and it would change the program for all users.

Is there some comparable way in .Net? I'm running Visual Studio 2008.

Any help will be graciously accepted!

If your route would be same with overwriting the exe file again in
your .NET project, you can use:

My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile(source,destination, overwrite)

....and just set overwrite parameter to "True".

Hope this helps,
