    Resolved [RESOLVED] Exe on Shared Folder Questions

    Hi guys. Its about time that I do this, I have an application which is being run on several workstations. My problem now is that everytime I update my program, I tediously update all workstations. I was going to use a batch file to update the workstations but we have this network access control program that have so many policies.

    So I was thinking of placing the application on a shared folder on a server, then have the workstations run the application using a shortcut pointed to the exe on the server. I haven't tried this before so I have a few questions:

    1. Which resources are being used? The workstation's or the PC's?

    2. Should there be any precautions I should consider especially that my application is connecting to a database?

    3. What exactly is this method called. I want to search it on google and get some more info
    Thanks in advance

    C++ Programming is overwhelming.

    Dont let it overwhelm you or you'll fall into the oblivion of its perfection
