Changes are made to forms in a split database and I want these changes to automatically apply to each of 6 workstations which have these objects stored locally. Changes have been made to the "Prototype" version which sits on server next to tables. Any ideas? I know each user could delete local copy and copy over updated Prototype version...just looking for automatic update feature.
Thanks,
Paul

You are correct that you need to provide a new version to your users. I know of no "update" feature that will do this work for you. I could only suggest that perhaps you NOT release the front ends until the majority of your front end is complete. If you need to have some user access during construction, you do have the option of using the front end on the server for the users to access via a shortcut. The downside to this is that you can possibly be locked out of design mode if one of the users is currently in your front end.

Good luck.
