UpdateVB - Help! - ArminP - 05-30-2011

Hello, I tried using UpdateVB and it works fine with links from Dropbox and stuff.

But the problem is, if I release my software(Alpha 1.0) and I make some changes(Lets say new button and new theme ALPHA 1.1)

How can I make that it will update to ALPHA 1.1? It needs the application files and all that stuff...

Regards,
ArminP.

Hey! First of all welcome to the forums! I hope you enjoy your stay!

In order to use UpdateVB, you need to package all the files that your application needs into a Self Extracting Archive (WinRAR Helps alot with this), every picture, icon, .dll file, .exe file, everything. Then you just need to copy/paste the link of that file into your program under Updatevb1.checkforupdates(). And that should do it.
