Update fm solution

[DukeS]

Is it possible to update your existing fm solution?

For example:

If I would make an invoicer solution with some features like products, addresses, invoices,...in one large database and only one window with many tables.

Now when my client used database for some time and needs a feature to calculate firm travelling expenses.

I many windows programs you get an update, insert disc and run update program wich installs you the new feature.

Is this possible in fm or i would have to make solution in many database files like feature one, feature two, etc. and put them together in whole solution?

Thanks

You might consider keeping your data and interface in separate files. If the changes can be made in the interface file, it could be simpler to replace just that file than the data file/s. Of course if the change requires new fields, they have to be added to the data file. (I wonder if that can be scripted from the interface file so that an "update file" button could make the necessary changes??? But some of the heavier guns would need to tell us if that's possible, and if so, how it might best be done.)
