Thanks for the suggestion, but that will not work in our case In at least one actual customer instance we have - out customer is running our app on a Microsoft Terminal Server and users get a remote desktop access to the server to run our app. In this specific case, REGISTRY queries get the users local registery on the CLIENT, but PATH queries check file paths on the SERVER, so registry checks do not work in this case. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
