Plug-Ins Page [Download Program] - [Update Program]
« on: September 10, 2002, 05:39:31 am »

Bending Your Ear:

Would it be possable to do this.

it seems some OCX plug-ins will not run without runtime files. would it be posable for when a programer creates a program and wants to submit it to the site the programer can offer diffrent versions.

[Download Full Version] ChartFinder.Zip Program, Runtime Files, Others Etc...

[Update] ChartFinder - Update.Zip Just The OCX from the zip Would Be Downloaded and installed.

this will allow users to just download what they need to update and not need to download 5 megs or so of runtime files, databases everytime.

The [Update] link should only be shown to the user when the programmer includes the file when the plug-in is submited.

thanks, Mark

Yeah, we should figure something out.  It's tricky though, because I can say from experience that a lot of people that need the runtimes won't download them, and then complain that you're plugin is faulty.

I wonder if we could make a standard "VB Runtimes Package" every pluging could share or something...
