Deployment in Citrix

[scott]

I am looking for a way to automate the updating of front ends to users'
home/personal directories in Citrix. The idea is to have the curent front
end in a common directory and to copy the front end from that directory to
each user's home directory. If this can be done in Access, great. If there
are other better ways to do it I would love any ideas.

The solution I used was to create a simple batch file which pushes the
front-end onto the users home dir and launch the database. It also, did a
version check and only pushed it if it wasn't the latest. Then you place a
link on their desktop and they use it to access the db.

Take a look at Tony's FE updater -

It indicates that it works with Citrix.
