From: Salad on
I told somebody that if they wanted to distribute the app via email, go
to the AutoFE folder, run StartMDB, and send the email.

So the first thing I hear is, "I don't see no stinking AutoFE folder!".
So I remote in and by golly the folder is hidden. So I change the
property and it's no longer hidden but available to all.

Q1) What can I do to make visible the AutoFE folder to certain users
and hidden to the masses?

Then the user clicked on StartMDB. The form didn't have the controls I
viewed, he only had RunIniFile. I determined I am the only user in the
AutoFEUpdater.ini file. I guess AutoFE program security gave me full
rights, the others run rights only.

Q2) I went to ControlPanel/System Info. Looked at computer name. The
text box was blank. So I clicked on Device manager. There was the name
I found in the ini file. Is that the name I fill in the ini file for
other users?

I REALLY like the email option for distributing the app. Since I had
set it up, all I wanted the other users to do was access the email
section.

Q3) In a future release would it be possible to set it up it up to
permit other users to send an installation email and maybe run the ini
configuration but not run the other parts?

Q4) If someone figured out the INI AutoFEUpdater.ini file, couldn't
they just open it up and make themselves users as well...if they could
see and move to the AutoFE folder?

Basically I wouldn't mind me and one other person that can set up the
apps, run the wizard. The rest could run the email distribution
process. Since people come and go, leaving it to one or two users may
be limiting.

Q5) How many people can be in the AutofeUpdater.INI file? Is 5 the max?

Thanks
