Hello:
I want to make my programs autoupdate via internet. I've thought made a menu entry that allow the program connect an internet server and look for a new version of the program. I think the first thing I've to do in connect the FTP server and then download the new version if exist. But my doubt are in changing the old exe for the new one.
Anybody that has this implemented wants to share it ?
Regards,

Just use a second EXE. From you main EXE: run the second EXE and close the main EXE. Then download the new EXE and run it.José Luis Sánchez wrote:Hello:
