You know how some programs every once in a while prompt you to DL the latest version, then do so and automatically make changes to the program or upload a whole new EXE and such?
How does that work exactly? Any ideas? I wouldn't mind putting that feature in my apps. It'd make updating a hell of a lot easier.
Also how would you insert new code modules.

You can make your program connect to a website, and through ASP your website can tell your program that updates are needed. Its a matter of dependencies!

Yeah..
But how do you do the auto update? Just replace the whole project or what?

Yes, your program must replace itself. You should have two programs. An update.exe to delete the existing one and install the new one. I posted the answer to this already, not sure if it helped though..but it may help you.
