Good idea, Tushar. This will give user the latest exe to use and it will be easy to revert back incase of any issue as the old exe is not deleted.

What I do is have a DBF file called LATEST.DBF with 1 record and 1 field. In this field I keep the name of the latest executable file. The shortcut points to loader.exe which has the following code
