Shyam,

Funny, this is the second posting today asking about this, and I just wrote up a long article for my website on it. Unfortunately I haven't got it up there yet, and I won't be able to do that until Saturday or Sunday. But if you check at the end of the weekend, you'll see it up there, I promise.

Basically, the way I do it uses a shortcut on the user's pc that points to a batch file that creates directories, copies files, checks a version-indicating file to determine whether or not to copy the new FE, registers dlls if necessary, and fires up the database.

Hope you can wait!
